Copenhagen Photo Festival has joined Futures in the platform’s fourth year and wishes to shed light on emerging Nordic lens-based art. This regional focus made it possible to receive additional Nordic funds (especially from Nordic Culture Point) and create a programme for upcoming and recent graduates in art or documentary photography residing in the Nordics.

‍

In our call, we searched for talents who fit the festival’s vision of engaging photography with architecture or underline our focus on the medium of photography itself. More specifically: 1) challenge the perception of, or work innovatively with spatial realms, light and architecture or embrace aspects of sustainability and a dialogue with nature and built world or 2) experiment with transformative, or future-focused methods, techniques, and aesthetics in lens-based technology.
