Open Call: Submissions of photos of the ‘Studio on the Move’ for Vessel Magazine

The editors of Vessel Magazine invite submissions exploring the notion of the studio in motion for publication in the upcoming edition of The Vessel.

They are specifically looking for craft practices that exist in shifting contexts, where making adapts to movement, embraces constraints, or unfolds across changing locations. They hope to feature submissions in the form of triptychs that evoke dialogue among the images, and collectively articulate the diverse, portable, and evolving nature of dispersed studio practices.

Craftspeople are invited to submit a set of three photographs, along with contextual information, that captures how their studio operates beyond a fixed site, revealing the tools, processes, and conditions that shape their work in motion. The editors will select 5-10 submissions for an article to be featured in the 12th edition of The Vessel, to be published in Autumn 2026.

If a submission is selected, a paid honorarium will be provided.

Deadline: the 1st of September
