iVisual: Mobile Phone Photographic Art

Juror:
Kate Bubacz
Lead Photo Editor, The Wall Street Journal

We invite all passionate mobile photographers to submit their best works for consideration in our upcoming exhibition, “iVisual: Mobile Phone Photography.” In an era where creativity knows no bounds, this exhibition seeks to showcase the incredible imagery that can be crafted using nothing more than a mobile phone.

Embrace the challenge of capturing the extraordinary within the ordinary. “Mobile Perspectives” invites you to explore the unique viewpoints and hidden wonders that can be discovered through the lens of your mobile device. From candid street photography to intimate portraits, show us the world as only you can see it.

Open to photographers of all skill levels.
All images must be taken with a mobile phone or tablet.
No restrictions on subject matter – let your creativity shine!

Thirty (30) images will be selected to be installed as unframed prints in our Maloof Gallery.

The Maloof Gallery, named after long-time APG patron’s Ted and Gloria Maloof, supports multiple group and solo exhibitions each year.

The total print (paper) size for selected awarded artwork will be limited to 30” on the longest side, or less, but no framing or matting will be required. These prints will be installed using magnets. We can also recommend a local printing service, if that is needed.
