We've had a email today from Bianca Stapleton, the project officer of this competition (I also have the application form so if anyone is interested, let me know and I'll email it. Thanks:
I'm writing to you to introduce the 1000 Words Competition.
The vision for this project is to produce a collaborative exhibition of short stories and photographs. Writers are challenged to produce stories of significance and interest in exactly 1,000 words. Photographers are challenged to visually depict the emotional core or theme of a selected story in a single image.
The final exhibition will bring together, for the first time, the written stories and the resultant photographic images that inspired them. In addition, the writers an...d photographers will also be revealed to one another. So the exhibition will be a meeting of two separate works and two separate artists, joining as one, for the first time.
This project has been created through a writer and photographer deciding to challenge each other, and other creative people, to create something unique, something challenging and something of interest to the community and ourselves.
The writing component of the competition is now open until 31 March 2015 and we would appreciate your support in circulating this information to your members of networks. Attached are a poster and a copy of the application form for this purpose.
