Submissions- Conveyor Magazine

I believe I can speak for all of the department when I say it was a pleasure to have the MFA students of Parsons come over to share their talent and creative work with us. I was fortunate enough to meet and talk with some of their artists including the head of the MFA program. Needless to say, there was some great art on the walls but I honestly believe many of us can be right there with them. In response to their show, I think everyone in our BFA program (especially the seniors) should submit a piece to the magazine CONVEYOR.

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.

We are 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. However, submissions should be thoughtfully considered before submitting.

The Deadline is March 4th.

Submit WORK!
