Onar has recently announced their first photo contest, “The Strength of Women in Turkey”, taking place from Monday 23 January through Tuesday 28 February.
From the organizer:
We are happy to announce the first Onar photo contest “The Strength of Women in Turkey”.
We launch this photo contest because we believe that photography is a form of art that shows the reality through different points of view and that a variety of perspectives is always enriching.
We are based in Turkey so we are looking for photographs which show women in Turkish society, whether it is Turkish women or foreign women living in Turkey. We want to receive photographs that show the strength of women, their potential in society and in the world around us, the contribution that through her strength she gives to her community. We look forward to receiving images on the potential of women in Turkish society.
In the contest of Onar’s Raise your Woice project, we look for photographs that show how a woman can raise her voice without shouting, her strengths, her talents, her abilities to positively affect the world around her.
We invite amateur and professional photographers from Turkey and from all over the world who have taken pictures about this topic here in Turkey to participate.
