(s)Light of Hand, 2025

A Juror’s Award and a Director’s Award will be given.

Submit

A photograph is a (s)Light of Hand, a magic trick of sorts, conjured into being. Light is summoned and chemistry is concocted, making visible both the intangible and the corporeal. It is heart and mind, imagination and craft, melding together into an experience of life-altering alchemy.

We here at our Collective and Gallery have a deep respect and affection for historic processes. In this call for entries, we wish to celebrate this love for hand-made, photo-based processes and invite you to share your magic-making wizardry in our spellbinding juried show, (s)Light of Hand.

It is acceptable to use digital tools as a means to an end, an alternative process result. Also, we will accept any digital or silver print if it has been hand-worked using such things as collage, stitching, weaving, and three-dimensional constructions. (Our Juror has final say as to what is considered ‘alternative’)

Our distinguished juror this year is Aline Smithson
