cold or
FROZEN?
To freeze or not to freeze– THAT is the question. I tend to cook in large quantities. I do it on purpose to provide additional dinners, but mostly lunches, with the same amount of effort it took to make dinner. The problem is that not all food freezes well. Chili is great reheated after being frozen for a week, but potato soup becomes paste after only a day in the freezer. Casseroles take on a luscious, unctuous quality while mushrooms turn to rubber. This next Call want you to freeze TIME, for better or for worse. Brilliant. Are you up for the challenge?
Check out this Call for Entries from the Darkroom Gallery (Essex Junction, VT) for Chronograph. They always have a low entry fee ($24) & a great juror. But, I have a soft spot for this theme. Take a look…
CALL for ENTRIES:
Chronograph
“Photography is a medium renowned for freezing time. However, there are many facets and dichotomies this theme of chronology can visually explore. Darkroom Gallery is calling for explorative visual depictions of time. Pasts and futures can often collide…and what of time travelers and quantum physics? Lastly, photographs can be truly devoid of time, they can have a sort of classic “timelessness”. “ — from darkroomgallery.com
