Postcards

Images and Whispers

This open call is inspired by the gesture of the postcard — an image sent across distance, carrying a personal trace or “voice.”

Participants are invited to submit in separate files a photograph and a message for the postcard’s back.

Each selected photograph will be shown together with the idea of its reverse side: a space where a message in whatever form and the name (or alias) of a recipient could appear.

Including a “written” message (in any language) is optional.

By bringing together image and text — or image and drawing, or image and “silence” — a dialogue emerges about communication, distance, memory, and the human need to share moments and emotions.
