Praxis Gallery is currently seeking photographic works for its upcoming exhibition, “Dreamscapes.” The gallery is looking for images that explore themes of dream states and interior worlds. Submissions should use surreal compositions, symbolic gestures, lyrical narratives, or abstraction to delve into these inner landscapes. This exhibition will be curated by the Praxis Directors.
Submission Fees: $35 for up to five images. $5 for each additional image (up to ten images total per open call). Entry fees are non-refundable.
New Praxis Members receive one 10 free image entry. For artists experiencing financial hardship, Praxis offers a limited number of free submissions.
Up to 38 images will be selected by the juror for exhibition at Praxis Gallery. Photographers will be notified of their selection 12 days after the deadline.

Accepted photographs will also be posted on the Praxis website exhibition page at that time.
