OPEN CALL: "Chemical Imbalance" at SuperFair! DC
This exhibit will be displayed at Superfair! DC — November 7-9, 2025 and at the Bushwick Community Darkroom Gallery November 11-December 8, 2025 with an artists reception in Brooklyn on Friday November 14 at 6pm.
For the Chemical Imbalance theme, we are seeking images that lean into unrest — the fractures, the unease, the unstable moments that refuse to smooth themselves out. Think about imbalance in the world around you and in the quiet corners of your own life: the way power tilts, the way bodies ache, the way climate and community shift under pressure.
