GRACE
We are delighted to inform you that submissions for the Delhi Photo Festival 2013 opened on Monday, March 4, 2013 and will close on April 20, 2013. It would be wonderful if you would consider submitting your work and sharing this news with friends and photo-practioners around the world. We will continue relying on your support to spread word of the Festival through emails and posting on your social media sites.
The theme for the Festival is “GRACE’ and we are looking for bodies of work which interpret it in diverse and creative ways. The word is very open-ended and can be associated with a wide range of meanings and feelings.
