Decagon Gallery has joined Ochrine. Rooted in Brooklyn, Decagon is a contemporary photography platform with an interest in what exists behind the photograph: the reason for making it, and the person who made it.

Photography as a bridge

Founded by John Manno and guided by Curator and Artistic Director Teona Machavariani, Decagon sees photography as a bridge between the seen and the unseen, a way of giving form to memory, wonder and imagination. The gallery exists to celebrate diverse voices and to create accessible spaces where every photograph can shine, supporting photographers who are expanding visual language and redefining what the medium can do today.

Three open calls, now on Ochrine

Decagon takes entries on its own website, and its calls are listed on Ochrine with a direct link to apply. Three are open right now.

The Room Next Door is a juried online exhibition about the space just beyond what we see, with $1,000 in cash awards. Entries close on December 15.

What the Streets Hold is a juried open call for street photography, interested in what people reveal without intending to. It also has $1,000 in cash awards, and entries close on January 15.

The Golden Hour is a free flash call about low, warm and fleeting light. There is no entry fee, and entries close on January 31.

Follow Decagon Gallery on Ochrine to see its next calls and exhibitions as soon as they are published.
