Any 3- dimensional art form with any media
This program is designed to offer a wide variety of core photography through a range of artistic
works and practices in the use of photography. Photography is the technique of recording and
generating permanent images, by the capturing and preservation of physical stimulus-patterns
on a layer of photosensitive material. It involves recording light patterns as reflected from
objects, on to a sensitive medium through momentary exposure. The process is done through
mechanical, chemical, or digital devices. All submissions in this category must be taken with a
camera.
