Images of Industrial Heritage
We invite photographers to capture images that showcase the stark beauty and surprising fragility of industrial heritage and our changing relationships with it. Or to document change in and for local communities as a result of industrialisation, deindustrialisation
and the social, economic, and environmental impacts of both.
Photographs may include, but are not limited to, World Heritage Sites, other heritage sites, and places which are not formally designated as heritage at all, but which have an important story to tell. Sites can be located anywhere around the world.
There are four categories that images can be submitted for, which aim to record, celebrate or pose questions about the variety of industrial heritage and its impact on people:
-
Machinery – working or redundant engines, equipment, production lines and processes
-
Buildings & Structures – from the monumental to the fragmentary
-
Landscapes and their transformation by the presence or disappearance of industrial activity and processes
-
People and community – making, conserving, taking part, moving away
