Portal

at the edge of becoming

Decagon Gallery   /   Deadline: 06/03/26

Download in PDF Format

A portal is not simply an opening. It is a condition.

We are interested in photographs that hold a viewer at the edge of something—where a shift is imminent but not yet complete. This may appear as a physical passage, but it does not have to. What matters is not the presence of a doorway, but the presence of tension.

The strongest images will resist resolution. They will not describe transition—they will embody it.
