Call for Works- Smoke & Mirrors Conveyor Magazine, Issue No. 3

Photography lies. It's supposed to.

Harnessing the sophistry that is inherent in the medium, collaboration between artful deception and red herrings can transform a gritty alleyway into a golden field of wheat, make ghosts appear on the horizon, or portray a wolf as the proverbial sheep.

The employment of deceptive clues, false emphasis, symbolic meaning, and other tricks of the trade is befitting photography; whether through enigmatic questions disguised as assertions, ambitious and decadent arrangements, or that which appears deceptively effortless and simple, photographs often mislead the eye.

Conveyor Magazine is seeking photographic and print-based work that interprets the theme of Smoke & Mirrors in a unique and provoking way. As always, the theme is open-ended. Submissions should be thoughtfully considered before submitting. Curators are also invited to suggest artists for Smoke & Mirrors.
