SALA SOLO PHOTOGRAPHIC OPPORTUNITY

We are so excited to once again be partnering with SALA Festival, Atkins Lab and praxis ARTSPACE to offer this exciting opportunity for an artist exhibiting photographic work in SALA Festival 2023, to support them in presenting a solo photographic exhibition of new work in the following year (SALA Festival 2024).

SALA Solo Photographic Opportunity will award a multi-faceted prize to a photographer who takes part in SALA 2023, boosting their practice in 2024 with a solo exhibition, resources, and mentorship. South Australian artists who plan to exhibit their photographic work in the 2023 SALA Festival are invited to nominate for this opportunity via the SALA Online Portal between 1 March-17 May 2023. 

Prize includes:

  • Printing of artwork at Atkins Lab & consulting with Paul Atkins (valued at $5,500)

  • Mentorship from Gavin Blake (Director of the Centre for Creative Photography) (valued at $3,500)

  • Exhibition space at praxis ARTSPACE for SALA Festival 2023 (August 2023) & curatorial assistance from Patty Chehade (valued at $3,500)

  • Premium registration in SALA Festival 2024 (valued at $540)

  • Who can apply?

    Photographers/image-makers/artists using photography who exhibit photographic artwork in the 2023 SALA Festival are eligible to nominate for this opportunity. Individual artists and artists working together in a collaborative duo are eligible to apply.

    It does not matter if your involvement in SALA Festival 2023 is small (eg. a single artwork in a group show).


Where, when & how to apply

Nominations for this opportunity will be accepted online via the SALA Online Portal between 1 March – 17 May 2023.

Applicants agree to the Terms & Conditions of nomination.

You can check out a preview of the nomination form. Or just be aware that you will need to upload 3-5 images of your work and provide a statement about your work and background as an artist, and how you hope to utilise this opportunity if you are successful.


What is involved?

Think of this opportunity as being in two parts.

In 2023, photographers who participate in SALA Festival nominate for the award.

In 2024, the successful applicant holds a solo exhibition of their (or their collaboration’s) photography work in SALA Festival 2024, supported by Atkins Lab, Centre for Creative Photography, Praxis Artspace, and SALA Festival.

Don’t miss out on this excellent opportunity and apply today.
