THE BRIEF

Home can be found in a person, or a memory. Scars and skin, pin boards of photographs with frayed edges. Freckled noses, specks of dust in the light, long dark shadows and perspectives. Home can be anything, anywhere.

What does home mean to you?

Most of us are lucky enough to be able to answer that question, but for some people it’s not so easy. We want to create a multifarious exhibition on the theme of HOME, and we are inviting you to share your vision of HOME in order to raise funds for Crisis, Shelter Cymru and Toiletries Amnesty.

 

HOW TO ENTER

Each entrant can submit up to six images in square format. These can be from a series or individual images. All submitted files must be named with photographers name and title of work. Please read the specification information below.

We’ve subsidised the fee for Shutter Hub members to take part. The conditions of entry allow exhibitors to save on print, framing and courier fees which we hope encourages wider participation in our international exhibitions.

The deadline for entries is 5pm BST on 20th August 2019

Please do not leave your entry until the last minute, we cannot accept any late entries.

 

FEES & ENTRY

Each entrant can submit up to six works in square format.

If you’re not a Shutter Hub member but would like to benefit from lower entry fees on this and other exhibitions, as well as all the other lovely stuff we offer, you can join here for just £80 per year.
