PhotoPlace Gallery - Ruins and Remnants

Ruins and Remnants: Deadline for submissions: Mar 10, 2025. Juror: Aline Smithson. Prints due: Apr 18, 2025. Exhibition: May 2 - May 23, 2025. This exhibit explores the evocative theme of abandoned architecture and the traces left by humanity. We seek to showcase images that reveal the stories etched into architectural spaces and the objects left behind—the marks, structures, and artifacts that speak to our histories and inspire contemplation. From crumbling factories and forgotten homes to discarded tools and personal belongings, these remnants of human presence evoke a sense of time’s passage and humanity’s impermanence. This is a call to preserve these fleeting spaces and objects through photography before they fade, rot, or crumble into obscurity. PhotoPlace gallery would like to support those affected by wildfires in LA with a donation of 10% of submission fees for the exhibit.
