Call for artistic proposals now being considered for inclusion in 'NO PEOPLE', an exhibit of photomedia as a part of the Head On Photo Festival.

It has been suggested that the only thing we take photographs of is ourselves – that no matter what we point the camera at, the only thing we can hope to derive from the resulting image is that value or form or quality or idea that is relevant to us."No People" is a group show of photomedia exploring the capacity of the camera to absorb our anthropomorphic concern by taking as subject anything but an actual person with the express intent of conveying human value.
