"The Global Photography Project is a great forum for collaborating with photographers worldwide, encouraging idea generation and sharing and promoting artistic growth – and lots of fun, too!"

"One challenge I’ve experienced with the Private Space theme is coming up with ideas that don’t require a living element (e.g., person, animal) as part of the image subject-matter. This is an abstract photo that I took which is likely near-impossible to figure out in a literal sense (what is it?, where is it?), but nevertheless conveys a strong sense of space. It occurs to me that each viewer will interpret the image in their own way, thus creating their own 'individual private space'"

Video Introduction
The VASA Global
Photography Project (GPP) is designed
to bring you together with other photographers
from diverse international locations into small online working groups that bridge culture,
language, custom,
and geography using
various internet-based social networking
tools.
In addition to developing your skills and vision in photography, you will be engaged in a multicultural creative environment as you work with your fellow team members to create a collaborative online photography exhibit around a conceptual theme.
Your team's work will be carefully reviewed by Stephen Perloff, who will be curating a juried exhibition of selected works from all the teams' final exhibits.The juried exhibition will be posted to the VASA Exhibition site and promoted through InCamera, VASA's newsletter. |
Stephen Perloff is the founder and editor of The Photo Review, a critical journal of international scope publishing since 1976, and editor of The Photograph Collector, the leading source of information on the photography art market.
