The Woody Gaddis Gallery, on the campus of the University of Central Oklahoma, seeks entries for the juried photographic exhibition entitled Bending the Truth. In a time of reality shows, fake news, virtual reality headsets, & idealized versions of our selves through curated social media posts, our perception of what is true is constantly challenged. We are looking for photographic works that try to convince us or challenge what we believe to be true. Any interpretation of this concept captured or created through the visual medium of photography is open for submission.
