Submissions

Call-for-Images

Central to our mission of publishing beautiful photography from Cuba is to showcase the work of non-Cuban photographers who have been there. We invite you to contribute to CubaSeen by submitting photographs in response to each issue’s theme.

Our theme for issue 08 is CUBAN LIGHT. Photographers know light to be the essential root of their craft. Whether it’s the literal illumination of a subject or the inner glow portrayed in a thoughtful portrait, CUBAN LIGHT has its own qualities.

CUBAN LIGHT is open to all photographers with an invitation to interpret the theme both broadly and creatively. We accept all formats, processes, and techniques.

Submission is digital and online only (no emails, please use the Submit images! button below). Submit up to five images for consideration in the Showcased Photographers section of CubaSeen. Showcased Photographers will be credited, published in print and online, and their sites linked in the zine. You retain all copyrights to your images.

Please join us in an enduring, and timely, conversation between artists in the United States and Cuba.

Image Specifications:

• Images should be uploaded in JPEG format

• Resolution of 300 ppi is preferred but not required
• Maximum file size is 20MB
