Download in PDF Format

PhotoPlace Gallery and Texas Photographic Society invite photographers to submit work for Composed, a juried exhibition celebrating the art of photographic composition. Every photograph is the result of a series of creative decisions. Whether carefully constructed or captured in an instant, composition shapes the way we experience an image, guiding the eye, creating relationships, establishing rhythm, and transforming a moment into something memorable.

We welcome photographs where composition is fundamental to the image's impact. From quiet, deliberate arrangements to fleeting moments where timing and structure align, we seek work that demonstrates an intentional approach to seeing. Images may explore framing, perspective, light, color, geometry, gesture, visual rhythm, negative space, layering, and the many ways photographers organize the visual world within the frame. All photographic genres and processes—including digital, analog, and alternative methods—are encouraged.

Presented in collaboration with Texas Photographic Society, Composed celebrates photography that embraces, expands, and reimagines the visual language of composition. We invite photographers from across the United States and around the world to share work that reflects a distinctive visual voice and a compelling command of the frame.
