Spinning Yarns: Narrative Photography

Contests, Juried Art Shows - Oil, Art Gallery

Narrative and story telling is at the heart of many photographs. Photographers create descriptive, complex and dramatic visual moments that represent the construction of narrative storytelling. Narrative photography is often open ended stories, dealing with issues and events of context, character and mystery. It is also the storytelling of people, places, objects and experiences, real or imagined, fictitious or factual. Is it the eye of the beholder, the flash of the camera bulb, the mirror in the prism, or the illusion of visual reality that creates meaningful and resonating photographs?

Eco Arts Awards is an annual thematic arts competition that features six creative categories: Fine Art, Photography, Literature, Repurposed Materials in Art & Design, Short Videos, and Songwriting! The theme is ecology, as we seek to promote its meaning, knowing that artist's are a key factor in lifting our awareness above any political or scientific debate. We have expert jurors in each category that will select the top three winners; First, Second, and Third place. Our juror's score on the basis of criteria specific to each medium, but know that thematic content carries a heavier weight in the overall score. This is our second year, and we have made some changes, not the least of which is doubling the amount of cash we are offering to three winners in six creative categories! The other change we are making is rather than announcing ten finalists we will be announcing our "Top Fifty" in each category, as we want to honor more artist's for their creativity and promote the theme of ecology from as many different perspectives as is possible. We will announce all winners on January 31st, 2013 via our newsletter, so be sure to sign up for it on our home page! Its also a good idea to "like us" on facebook for more current news and interesting info pertaining to the art of ecology. Now go hug a tree and express yourself!
