Analog – Made by Hand ends 9 February 2026

Posted on by

Deadline: 9 February 2026. Analog – Made by Hand celebrates photography as a slow, tactile, and intentional practice. In contrast to digital reproduction, analog photography emphasizes craft, material engagement, and presence – from the moment light meets film to the physical act of printing. This exhibition highlights photographs shaped by time, chemistry, and handwork, where process is central to the photographic experience.

PhotoPlace Gallery invites submissions of photographs created using analog capture and/or historical, alternative, or handmade photographic processes. Submitted work is reviewed digitally, but selected images should clearly convey the physical qualities of the final print, including surface, texture, tonality, and edge detail where relevant.

We are honored to have Christina Z Anderson as juror for Analog – Made by Hand. She will select up to 35 images for exhibition in our Middlebury, Vermont gallery and another 40 images for our Online Gallery. All 75 images will be reproduced in the exhibition catalog and remain permanently on our website, and be promoted on social media with links to photographer’s URL.

Prizes:

Awards: Juror’s Award $300, Director’s Award $200, Honorable Mentions $50
All selected artists will be published in a printed exhibition catalog and featured on our website and social media.
