OPEN CALL ‘FAUNA’
DWI PUTRA SEPIYANA
‘Animal Portraits’I like to observe my surroundings, including the animals. I thought it would be interesting to look at them from human perspective. It means that taking their portraits, just like humans. The reason why I took the portraits of the animals around me is because I want to present the animals that I am familiar with in a different setting. That way, we can see their expressions that are different with different animals. With these portraits, most people tend to interpret the animals’ feelings and personalities based on their previous experience or something they were exposed to in the past related to the animal. However, do we know their real feelings and emotions? An example would be the portrait of the Tokay gecko that has an open wide mouth. It looks like it is smiling widely, when in reality it is actually opening its mouth to bite. If people never know about Tokay gecko they tend to assume that it is a cute happy animal or perhaps they have a totally different interpretation based on their own perspectives. I wonder if animals actually posses the same expressions and feelings like human, or maybe they don’t at all.
FAUNA’ is a new call open to any suggestions on photographic series related to animals. We will be posting the best submissions on Urbanautica and related channels. Deadline is February 18th. One project selected from among those submitted will be published and printed on the 4th issue 4 of “Stand Quarterly” magazine together with the works of Alec Soth, Céline Clanet, Vincent Fournier and Trine Søndergaard. Stand is an advertisement-free photographic journal showcasing the work and thoughts of various contemporary photographers from all areas of the world. Submissions of the series are welcome at info@urbanautica.com or directly on our facebook page. Steve Bisson curator and art director of Urbanautica will also be selecting works for future exhibitions. The selection is made on series (full project). Yet we accept single images to share with our readers here on facebook… Thank you all and best wishes!!!
