Theme: Disconnected in a Connected World
We live in a world that seems more connected than ever, through phones, social media, and technology. Yet, many people feel more alone, unheard, or unseen.
This theme invites you to explore this contrast.
Think about what it means to be connected, yet feel disconnected. Is it about people ignoring each other in real life? Is it about being lost in screens? Or is it about finding new ways to truly connect?
This category invites participants to express this theme through Photography, Video Art, Digital Animation, Montage, or Stop Motion
Your creation should powerfully portray the feeling of disconnection in a connected world, using visual storytelling to evoke emotion, reflection, or a deeper understanding.
