Soft-Spot is an artist and writer collective site, that features rotating online exhibitions pairing images and texts from different artists, as well as various other types of medias. While as photographers, we find it easier to express ourselves via images, writing is a very important aspect of photography, especially in the "Fine Art" world. Writing is a way to express your ideas and hone in to specifically what you're trying to say as an artist, and how you represent and view the world around you. Carrying a small notebook everyday will be a constant physical reminder of your thoughts. This will inevitably lead you to better process your own ideas and intentions not only to yourself, but to your peers and teachers. With these intentions in mind, Soft Spot strives to be a social platform that allows people to exhibit work, be exposed to new artists and take part in visual and verbal dialogue surrounding contemporary issues.
AND, they are always accepting submissions of work!
