Booksmart Studio: Call for Entries

Inhabitation
Exhibition Opportunity at Booksmart Studio

Booksmart Studio is seeking submissions for the exhibition "In Habitation".

"In Habitation" is looking for photographs that help explore the landscape and infrastructure of America, the population responsible for it, and the symbiotic relationship between the two. This exhibition explores the ways in which our urban and rural centers operate and fluctuate, creating a uniquely American dynamic of experience. This exhibition will ultimately present a socio-graphic interpretation of America- a mapping of people and place.

Juror:
David Wright

David Wright, 2006 graduate of RIT's photojournalism program, is an editorial photographer based out of Maine. His series "Alebtong, Uganda, 2009" is very well known and he was also the co-founder of the project and exhibition called Pause to Begin.

In January and February 2009 David spent 2 months in northern Uganda photographing for A River Blue, a school providing psychosocial counseling and intense vocational training in topics like tailoring, agriculture, and arts to vulnerable youth.

His series "Alebtong, Uganda, 2009" was selected as 1 of 3 winners in the 2009 Conscientious Portfolio Competition and was exhibited at Anastasia Photo in New York from February 5 – April 14, 2010.

David’s editorial work is represented by Redux Pictures and his Uganda work is represented by Anastasia Photo. Most photographs on this website are available as licensed images and edition prints.
