Call for Entry: In Time

In Time

The Kiernan Gallery / Deadline: 10/26/11

Time is an essential element of science, philosophy, and religion. Nonetheless its definition has continuously eluded the greatest minds. For In Time, The Kiernan Gallery welcomes images that interpret and define Time as subject matter, whether it be in a historical context of the then and now, time lapse, events and the intervals between them, or a crucial moment, preserved for eternity. In a sense, every photograph is an embodiment of time.
