Elemental: Earth, Air, Fire, Water | Photography Open Call

Elemental is a photography exhibition centered on earth, air, fire, and water.

The elements are not just scenery. They are pressure, weather, heat, erosion, breath, flood, smoke, stone, ash, light, atmosphere, and survival. They shape the physical world, but they also carry emotional weight. They can suggest beauty, danger, memory, destruction, renewal, and transformation.

We are seeking photographic and lens-based work that engages with one or more of the four elements, either directly or symbolically. The work may be quiet, violent, minimal, surreal, documentary, abstract, staged, or experimental. A photograph of water does not have to be about water. A photograph of fire does not have to show flame. The strongest images may come from what the elements leave behind.
