Childhood is a photography exhibition exploring the memories, emotions, rituals, and small discoveries that shape our earliest years. From play and imagination to family, friendship, freedom, vulnerability, and growing up, the theme invites photographers to reflect on childhood as both a lived experience and a remembered world.
Submissions may portray children, places, objects, gestures, or traces of childhood. Documentary, fine-art, staged, conceptual, archival, and experimental approaches are all welcome, as long as childhood remains central to the image or photographic series.
