The photograph’s power as a narrative tool is derived from the impression that what is captured within the frame is an accurate representation of what actually occurred at a specific moment in time. As complete or comprehensive as any narrative may appear to be, it will always be subject to a process of including some elements and excluding others. These inclusions and exclusion are a crucial part of what photographic storytelling is all about - What is being presented within the frame to the viewer – and what is being left out or left to the viewer’s imagination.
Praxis Gallery presents photographic works that explore the development of visual narratives through the still image. Stories may take any shape or form; they may be literal or fantasy, documentary or fiction; complex or minimal.

THE SHAPE OF THINGS
Entry Deadline: March 31, 11:59PM CT
Exhibition Dates | May. 17 – June 14, 2025
The rhythm of surfaces, lines, and values is for me the essence of photography; composition should be a constant of preoccupation... an organic coordination of visual elements. – Henri Cartier-Bresson
The term composition means ‘putting together’ or the act of combining parts or elements to form a whole - often adhering to compositional principles that make a work of photographic art more appealing or intriguing to viewers. These principles include the development of rhythm, movement, contrast, balance, unity, proximity, and continuity to create expressive and compelling compositions – while emphasizing different visual concepts.

JOURNEYS • PASSAGE & PLACE
Submission Deadline: April. 15, 11:59PM CST
Exhibition Dates: May 17 - June 14, 2025
The journey has been both a literal and symbolic force in art and photographic storytelling. From early expedition photography to contemporary narratives, movement—across landscapes, borders, and states of mind—has shaped artistic vision. This juried exhibition invites photographers to explore the journey in its many forms: the grand and the intimate, the external and the internal. How has travel—whether real or imagined—altered your perception of the world? What does it mean to embark on a path that leads to transformation? And in an era where movement is both celebrated and restricted, how do we see the journey today?
Praxis Gallery seeks photographic work that explores the concept of the journey in any of its iterations. All genres, capture types, black & white and color, traditional and non-traditional photographic and digital post-production processes are welcome for submission.
