To accompany this workshop, we plan to organize a small-scale photo exhibition at the main venue. The objective of the photo exhibition is to attract attention and interest of people who are less familiar with the various borderlands adjacent to China. We hope that with a collection of photographs that portray everyday life in the borderland, the audience will appreciate the diversity, the transformations, the vulnerability and resilience of these diverse border zones.
We invite submissions of photographs on China’s borderlands, the cultural practices of border-crossings (literal as well as symbolic), and images that reflect the theme of “neighbouring”.
Submissions could be in both digital and non-digital forms. Please include copyright and caption information in your submissions. Digital photographs must be at least 2,400 pixels wide if a horizontal image or 2,400 pixels tall if a vertical image, in high-quality JPEG or RAW. We prefer original, unmodified camera images.
If your files are larger than 5 MB, or if you wish to submit photographs in printed form, please contact the conference convenors Martin SAXER (arijms@nus.edu.sg) and ZHANG Juan (arizj@nus.edu.sg).
