There is always a room next door: a door left ajar, a window lit across the courtyard, a hallway that turns out of sight, a voice through the wall. We know it is there. We don’t know what it holds.
For THE ROOM NEXT DOOR we are looking for photographs that bring the viewer to the edge of a space they cannot fully enter. These are images where something is felt more than shown, where the frame stops just short of an answer, and where what lies beyond is left for the viewer to imagine. The mystery should come from what the photograph withholds, not from what it hides.
We welcome thresholds, doorways, windows, and reflections; interiors seen from outside and exteriors seen from within; neighboring lives glimpsed at a distance; sounds, light, and shadows that arrive from somewhere else; and constructed or staged work that invents what waits on the other side. Documentary, conceptual, and experimental approaches are all welcome. People may appear, but the subject is the space between here and there.
