Calling photographers both amateur and professional for the opportunity to exhibit in Leeds. Submit 3 images of your work in relation to the state of urban loneliness that comes with living in a city. Deadline 7th November 2018.
“You can be lonely anywhere, but there is a particular flavour to the loneliness that comes from living in a city, surrounded by millions of people.”
“Loneliness is personal, and it is also political. Loneliness is collective; it is a city.
The Lonely City: Adventures in the Art of Being Alone (2016)
Olivia Laing’s investigative book on the state of urban loneliness beautifully captures what it is like to live in the modern world, a juxtaposition of feeling both connected and isolated.
