SELF

About the Open Call

SELF is a call for self-portraits that go beyond likeness—images made in the act of looking at oneself honestly, uncomfortably, tenderly, or strangely. We're looking for photographic self-portraits in any style—documentary, constructed, conceptual, or experimental; work with a clear, felt point of view, not simply 'photos of the artist,' but images that use the self as a way of asking something larger; series or single images; and work that risks vulnerability over polish.
