CALL TO ARTISTS

Photography & Collage Virtual Artist Residency

Final Deadline to Apply: Tuesday, 19 August 2025. The Photography & Collage Virtual Artist Residency will invite photographers and collage artists to come together in dialogue, learn from one another, and make artwork for a series of exhibitions that explore the intersection of collage and photography. Unfolding in two tracks over the course of a month, we will ask, What happens when a collagist picks up the camera? What happens when a photographer collages their pictures? Presentations will explore collage in theory, artist practice, the ecosystem of art, the state of photography, and the history of photography and collage. Artists will shoot with their own camera, in whatever process they choose (film & develop or digital & print), and then make collage with the photographs they take.

Reid in Kolaj 32. “The themes I present ask the viewer to consider humans’ complicated relationship with nature, the macrocosm vs.the microcosm, and the power of the female experience.” A portfolio of Reid's work appears in Kolaj 32.
