CollexArt is accepting fine art photography for its 2022 Intimate Landscape call for entries. All capture types and processes are welcome including analogue, digital, color, black & white, and alternative processes.
Inspiration for this call is based, in part, on Eliot Porter’s book Intimate Landscapes which was published in 1979. His work eschews the grand vista in favor of a sensitive approach documenting the subtle colors, patterns, and poetic moments he observed in nature.
What are we looking for?
We seek fine art photography artists using the photographic medium to communicate their unique sensibility and interpretation of the landscape.
