ENTANGLEMENT – take part in the next PEP exhibition in Berlin!

ENTER CONTEST

Selected artists will take part in a group exhibition at B-Part Exhibition, the gallery curated by loop in the heart of Berlin in July / August 2026.

Theme: ENTANGLEMENT

"Entanglement" invites photographers to explore the intricate webs of connections that define contemporary experience. From the most intimate human relationships to the vast systems shaping our planet, existence unfolds through networks of dependency, influence, and mutual transformation.

Nothing can truly exist in isolation. In nature, forests communicate beneath the soil through hidden fungal networks; life relies on sunlight, water, and cycles that exceed human perception. Interdependence is equally unavoidable in a globalized world, where production chains, urban structures, and social systems intertwine across borders and cities. On a human scale, entanglement emerges through relationships, collaborations and intimate bonds. Our identities and life paths are shaped by the emotional, social, and cultural systems we inhabit - where care and connection coexist with tension and vulnerability.

The theme also echoes the notion of entanglement in quantum physics, where distant particles remain fundamentally connected regardless of space - a poetic reminder that separation may be an illusion, and connection a fundamental state of being.

Submissions may address human and non-human relationships, personal or collective narratives, through social, ecological, political, technological, or conceptual perspectives. The exhibition aims to create a space for reflection, where images become thresholds into the networks that shape our worlds.

Participating artists will be selected through an international jury of artists and curators. The call is open to all ages, nationalities and backgrounds.

Series as well as individual images are accepted.
