FICTIONAL NARRATIVE
Exploring the Power of Storytelling in Photography

November-December 2023

As The Dust Settles.jpg

"Fiction is the truth inside a lie."

Stephen King

We are thrilled to announce our newest photo exhibition: "Fictional Narrative". This exhibition celebrates the art of imaginary storytelling and invites photographers to submit their most captivating, evocative, and narrative-driven images.

​

  • A cash award of $300 and one copy of the exhibition catalogue* will be given to the First Place entry. This winning entry will also be promoted on social media.

  • The Second Place entry will be given one copy of the exhibition catalogue* and promotion on social media.

  • The Third Place entry will be promoted on social media.

​

We're looking for images that tell an imaginary story, convey an emotion, or capture an artificial moment in time. The possibilities are endless: you might submit a portrait that pretends to capture the essence of a person, a landscape that evokes a sense of a place that doesn't exist, or a still life that suggests a larger invented narrative.

​

Entries will be judged on their technical merit, visual impact, and narrative power. The fee for submission is $30 for up to five images. The accepted entries will be showcased in an online exhibition from mid-November through the month of December, a video will be uploaded to YouTube, and an exhibition catalog will be available for purchase.

​

*Recipient must be located in a country or region to which Blurb Books ships. Decagon Gallery takes no responsibility for shipments lost in transit, delayed or damaged.
