Decode Gallery - Self Portrait Exhibition Submissions
Decode Gallery is now accepting photography submissions for our Self Portrait Exhibition. The act of creating a self portrait is an important process for an artist. Self portraits reveal stories, it’s an exploration of identity, it’s an intimate glimpse into the life of the artist. As we explore image and personal identity, we gain insight into the life of the artist. We are looking forward to seeing your best self portrait photography.
