Traces

Jeff Curto, juror

PhotoPlaceGallery   /   Deadline: 12/20/21

Even the most mundane of human activities leaves evidence of its existence. Old letters and shopping lists, a once-loved stuffed animal left on the swing set, fragments of an old wedding dress, traces of writing on a long-since erased chalk board. Larger human activities leave boarded-up storefronts, crumbling infrastructure and the wrecks of old buildings. No matter the scale, they all leave a nostalgic hint of irretrievable past and, ultimately, of our mortality.

For this exhibition, we seek images that hint of humans come and gone by the evidence left behind.

All photographers and all image capture and processing methods are welcome.
