Liverpool Architecture Festival 2024 is delighted to be working with Open Eye Gallery to facilitate a free to enter photography competition.
Join us for the Opening night for an early private viewing of the entries. The night will include a Prize Giving, a opportunity to look around the works and a drinks reception.
Winning and shortlisted entries will be exhibited in Open Eye Gallery’s covered atrium space and Digital Window Gallery, located within Mann Island in the heart of Liverpool’s famous waterfront. The exhibition will be free to the public during June.
The exhibition runs Tuesday 4th – Saturday 29th June (open Tuesday to Saturday, 10am-5pm)
Competition Brief:
“Everyone is Moving - Your Journeys, Your Neighbourhoods”
The theme of the photography competition is Neighbourhoods – what do you consider as your neighbourhood, or neighbourhoods? Whether that be where you live, work, study, visit and your movement between these neighbourhoods. What aspects of your town and city are crucial to forming these neighbourhoods? Is it the street signage, the bus shelters, the pubs on the corner or the larger gathering spaces?
Photographs to capture the unique character of the diverse neighbourhoods of the Liverpool City Region within 6-9 snapshots.
