OPEN CALL FOR ENTRIES
Twelve: Make Believe TWELVE: Make Believe opens the door to imaginative photographic images. From reflections, double exposures, exaggerated lens trickery, composites, close views that lose their identity to become only line and texture, costumed subjects, unexpected lighting, atmospheric day dreams or nightmares, distorted color, purposeful movement, added marks or writing...there are unlimited possibilities for photographic make believe. However, the theme also recalls the obvious but often forgotten quality of photographs. Photographs, except for the tangible, physical photograph itself, are all make believe. They are not the dog, not the black and white canyon, not the wave, not the flower, not the smile. Even with the most accurate rendering, photographs are illusions. They are fiction. They are make believe. Viewpoint Photographic Art Center welcomes your concepts, creativity and craftsmanship in exploring the idea of Make Believe for the 15th annual TWELVE juried exhibit. We hope you accept the challenge.
Make Believe is a national Open Call for both members and non-members of Viewpoint Photographic Art Center to participate.

ABOUT THE JUROR
An artist and educator, Jodie Hooker is drawn to concepts around the perception of photographs as real. Her recent work explores the continuum of objective to subjective reality through landscape images. These might begin as straight photographs which are then combined with gum-printing to expand the experience and definition of reality. Recently retired from a distinguished career in the Photography Department at American River College, Hooker has taught an impressive range of courses in photography from art photography, color photography, alternative processes, and digital photography. Her teaching experience also includes art history, painting, sculpture, computer graphics and ceramics. Hooker has exhibited in numerous solo and group show throughout her career and is featured in Guide to Photographic Alternative Processes, 2nd Edition by Jill Enfield. Hooker holds a B.F.A and M.S. in Art Education from Alfred University in NY and M.F.A. from SUNY, Buffalo.
