Each edition of PhotoKTM strives to serve as a platform for emerging photographers to meet with more experienced and established practitioners – photographers, photo editors, curators, writers – to share and discuss their work and practice at large.

This year we have an incredibly diverse pool of professionals who have volunteered their time to meet with younger practitioners for review sessions. We are grateful for their time and eagerness to connect and give back to the community!

The sessions are designed to be open ended conversations. Participants are welcome to seek inputs on their specific projects and/or their practice at large, ask for specific advice that a reviewer might have based on their professional experience and expertise, seek suggestions for other works to view, material to read, people to look up etc.

• All review sessions are free of cost
• Review sessions are open to early-mid career photo practitioners and priority will be given to people based in South Asia
• Sessions are open to individuals, collectives and other formations
• All sessions will take place online on Zoom
• Each session will be 45 minutes between the reviewer and the participant
• Participants are invited to present minimum one and maximum two projects
• We ask participants to submit work at the time of application so we can share work with reviewers prior to the scheduled sessions
• Due to limited spots, we can take registrations for one review per participant only
• Participants should indicate their first, second and third choices for reviewers in the application form. We will honor requests as far as possible, but might also suggest a different reviewer, if we think they would be a good match for you.
• Application deadline: 20th November 2020
