Hot/Cold: Members Show

PhotoAccess is delighted to invite entries for our 2021 Huw Davies Gallery Members exhibition, Hot/Cold.

This year’s show responds to the idea that we have entered a time of extremes – seasonal, climactic and perhaps emotional. Each twelve month journey around the sun brings us the glorious change of the seasons, from the basking heat of January to the frozen breath of July, and all the shades between. But, recently, this variation seems to have grown more intense, bringing devastating bushfires, an unusually cool, rainy summer and a shrinking snow season.

This disorder re-shapes our world and our lives, changing the plants and animals around us, provoking us to build new places to live and altering how we spend our days. These changes also impact how we feel about ourselves and participate in our relationships, alternately separating us from and bringing us closer to each other. What does it mean to be Hot/Cold?

All PhotoAccess Members are welcome to submit up to two entries to Hot/Cold. All entries meeting the submission criteria will be included in the Huw Davies Gallery exhibition and the Online Gallery.

Works may be in any photographic medium, including analogue and digital print photography, film (digitised) and video or photo-sculpture, but they may not have been previously exhibited in a solo or group exhibition. Prints may be up to A3+ in size, and may not be framed. Digital moving image works should be submitted as an .mp4 file.

If you would like to enter, but are not yet a Member (or need to renew your membership), please join here.

Entries close: Wednesday, 5 May, 2021, 11.59pm.

Works must be delivered to PhotoAccess by Friday, 7 May, 2021, 4pm.
