Revela-T Festival“I’ve seen things you wouldn’t believe…”
This phrase, taken from the iconic final monologue “Tears in Rain” in the movie Blade Runner, reminds us that sometimes the most extraordinary experiences go unnoticed or “fade in the rain…” With this idea, we invite you to participate in the 13th edition of the Revela’t Festival.
Why participate?
Analog photography has chronicled the progress of humanity for nearly two centuries, capturing people, landscapes, events, ideas, thoughts, desires, and art at every moment. Today, in a world where the constant flow of images and the advent of AI have blurred the boundaries between the real and the imagined, it may seem like nothing can surprise us. However, this is where your perspective comes in. You too have seen things that will surely astonish many…
As always, the theme is very open. We don’t want to tell you what to show, but we want to be part of your unique vision. What have you captured that others haven’t seen or imagined? We seek anything that can surprise us. We know that the collection of works can be diverse and heterogeneous, and it is precisely this variety that we value. We will provide curatorial coherence to the pieces, connecting the different perspectives into a joint visual narrative.
We want to turn Revela’t into a space for the unexpected, where images challenge us, provoke questions, reflections, move us, and push boundaries…
Help us rediscover analog photography and consider that there is still much to be done.
