The Assembled Image delves deeply into photography as a medium that is not merely a reflection of reality but a constructed and manipulated form of artistic expression. By employing techniques such as collage, compositing, digital alteration, or even carefully arranged traditional compositions, photographers can transcend the conventional boundaries of the medium. These creative approaches encourage viewers to reconsider the authenticity and narrative power of the photograph itself. The Assembled Image invites artists to assemble fragments of reality, combining distinct visual elements, moments in time, and conceptual ideas to create something entirely new. This process challenges the audience to engage with the image in a fresh way, questioning what they believe they see and how they interpret the story being told.

The Assembled Image is an international open call designed for photographers who are 18 years of age or older. It welcomes a broad spectrum of submissions, encouraging creativity across both traditional and unconventional media. Artists working with any two-dimensional image-based formats are invited to participate, whether through classic photographic processes or contemporary digital techniques. The submission guidelines emphasize inclusivity, welcoming both conventional and alternative photographic practices that integrate analog or digital photographic foundations. This inclusive framework provides photographers with the freedom to explore inventive ideas and craft compelling visual narratives that challenge the conventions of photographic storytelling.
