What is this photobook about?
With our layered theme, this photobook will speak to both the craft of creating images — gear, rituals, techniques — and the inner process of using art to cope, reflect, and make sense of the world
We’re interested in:
Work-in-progress or finished visual projects
Images that reflect your personal or political emotional landscape
Behind-the-scenes shots, notes, contact sheets, or mess
Reflections on how you use photography to process grief, chaos, joy, anxiety, identity, or uncertainty
What’s your creative process like—from spark to final image?
How does your work reflect what you’re feeling about the world right now?
Has making art helped you move through anything emotionally?
What part of your process is the hardest? The most sacred?
