Last call for entries for the festival Chobi Mela, which will take place in Dhaka next January. The theme this year is “Intimacy”.
Is intimacy global? Does one size fit all? Is closeness measurable? What are our most intimate moments? Are we intimate with God? Is it about dark secrets, moments shared? What words do we choose to describe intimacy? Is it about closeness, warmth, trust? Do these words mean the same to everyone? How would an artist take the word beyond the clichés of sex, romance and stolen trysts? How intimate is one with oneself?
The photographers are invited to probe into the depths of personal space. To reach out to the wider universe. To challenge perceptions of belonging. To question ideas of ownership and bonding. To bring back stories of intimacy that will touch our souls and fire our imagination.
The deadline for submission is on June 8th 2014.
