Deadline Now Extended to June 1st
Impeached is thrilled to announce an open call for artists working in the photographic medium to contribute to an upcoming photo book titled:
Becoming Poison: A Lens On The Toxic World of Plastic
This project is dedicated to exploring and exposing the profound effects of plastic in its various forms.
The Call
We are seeking compelling images that align with the following categories:
1. Visual Narrative: Striking images of plastic in various environments – from urban landscapes to remote natural settings. This section would aim to visually represent the ubiquity of plastic waste and its intrusion into all corners of the planet.
2. Human Element: Photographs depicting how humans interact with plastic daily in a consumer culture overwhelmed by often single-use plastics.
3. Paradox of Plastics: Capturing the material’s aesthetic appeal.
4. Fusion of Artifice: Cutting edge imagery that blends AI-imagery with the theme of plastic, highlighting the synthetic and manufactured essence of both.
Photographers from all corners of the world are encouraged to submit their unique perspectives on this global issue that transcends borders.
