Flow Exhibition – Open Call invites photographers and visual artists from around the world to showcase their work in São Paulo this December. The group show will take place at Echos Studio from December 6 to 19, 2025, and the submission deadline is November 20, 2025. Applying is free, and only selected participants pay a fee that covers printing and exhibition production. This open theme event welcomes both photographic and short video works, offering an accessible way to gain international exposure.
Among today’s photography challenges and contests, Flow Exhibition distinguishes itself by focusing on simplicity and visibility. Applicants submit digital files (up to five works) and the Artlymix team takes care of everything else. Each selected artist’s work is professionally printed, mounted, labeled, and displayed in Brazil. They also receive a dedicated webpage, documentation of the opening night, and photos of their pieces on display. Sales are optional and available only to artists attending the event in person.

Categories or Themes
Flow Exhibition does not divide submissions into categories. It embraces an open theme approach that allows each artist to express their vision freely. Works can include still photography, digital art, or short films up to ten minutes long, provided they are submitted digitally and fit the specified print dimensions. This flexibility makes it ideal for creators working across styles such as fine art, conceptual, or experimental photography.
