Boundaries

Close on March 22, 2020

Territory: Worldwide

Theme: Boundaries

Eligibility: Open to all USA and International artists 18 years and older

Entry Fees: $35/6 images

As we consider work for inclusion in CollexArt, we are interested in the idea and concepts behind your work and its execution. Factors such as prior accomplishments, education, the creation date of the work are not relevant in our selection process.

What inspires our curiosity may be unique to us, and therefore, not being selected should not be seen as anything other than not a match for our current selection criteria and mix of reviewers.

Call Details for Boundaries

The term boundaries can encompass many subjects and be used in a variety of contexts. CollexArt seeks artwork that addresses the theme from an artist's point of view. Artists are asked to submit work that emphasizes different visual, psychological, geographical or any other aspects related to the concept of a boundary that is evident in your work.

Artists who wish to be considered for our online exhibit space are encouraged to submit images that are part of the same body of work.

Awards

One artist will be awarded the Purchase Award at the conclusion of this call and entered as a finalist for the Annual Grand Prize. Submitting artists (including the Purchase Award Winner) may also be invited to have their own in-depth Artist Profile Page, have their work included in the CollexArt Store and in the curated Online Exhibit Space. Artists who get featured by CollexArt in this manner are entered as finalists for the Annual Grand Prize.

1. Purchase Award of $1000 - Artists are invited to enter artwork for consideration for the Purchase Award.

2. The CollexArt Annual Grand Prize of $5,000 - identifies a single artwork as the best of the year. The Grand Prize will be awarded in March of 2021. A panel of jurors will consider artwork selected for CollexArt Exhibits, the CollexArt Store and Purchase Awards received through February, 28th 2021. The cash prize is unrestricted.

3. Complimentary top-level CollexArt Membership for all selected artists. Artists with this membership level can submit to CollexArt calls free of charge, and submit additional work throughout the year for consideration for the CollexArt Store.

All About Photo Presents 'The Lives of Others' by Meg McKenzie Ryan

Meg chose to shoot in the poorer neighborhoods of Mexicali, Mexico, the capital city of the state of Baja California. With over a million residents, the possibilities were enormous. Residents hardships were visible. Meg lived a few miles north of the Mexicali border in the lower desert of California, USA. The summers there last roughly seven months, and daytime temperatures during several of those months are almost always over 115 degrees F. Nights get down to 90-plus degrees F. In addition, major earthquake faults run through the area, and roughly every ten years or so, a large earthquake hits causing some buildings to crack or even crumble.
