Submit Entries To These 3 Categories Of The Singapore International Photography Festival Till 31 Mar

Once every two years, the Singapore International Photography Festival returns with an Open Call for photographers, curators and publishers from all kinds of genres, and all nationalities to be a part of the festival.

In its 10-year milestone, the festival aims to expand the reach of art photography and uncover new talents in the photography world; this time with an even greater diversity in photography from Southeast Asia and the World.

The 2018 edition consists of three categories: Portfolio, Curatorial Projects, and Photobooks (the newest edition).

1. Portfolio (Photo Works)

The Portfolio category has no theme. Instead, it looks into the preoccupations of the participants, the works they choose to create, and the issues and subjects that give a different perspective of the world.

Unleash your creativity and enter into uncharted waters as you push your photography skills past greater limits.

Deadline: 31 March 2018

Price: USD30 (approx. S$21.10)

2. Curatorial Projects

The Curatorial Projects category started in 2014 to promote curatorial practice amongst emerging and independent curators within the medium of photography in Asia.

The fifth edition in 2016 of the Open Call showcased a project by Carol Chow, a lecturer and researcher at the Chinese University of Hong Kong. Her project explored the vanishing spaces in Hong Kong as documented by six female photographers in the exhibition, titled “A Room with a View”.

What will yours be?
