What does resistance look like through your lens? We are seeking submissions of photographic work for a curated exhibition that delves into the idea of resistance in all its forms. This could be resistance as force, as struggle, as survival. It could be resistance to systems, structures, expectations—or even resistance within the self.

All photo-based media are welcome, without limitation. The only requirement is that your piece incorporates light in some way as part of its creation—beyond that, the form, message, and execution are entirely up to you. Whether you use photography to document, provoke, or reflect, this call is for those who wish to challenge and question through image-making.

From electrical and physical resistance to emotional endurance and cultural defiance, we encourage you to submit work that interprets the concept broadly and personally. Each entry will be individually considered by our jury for inclusion in an exhibition that brings these perspectives together into a collective visual conversation.
