Welcome to the 127 Day online exhibition for the 12th of July, 2020! Despite unprecedented worldwide trauma, 21 intrepid souls across four continents virtually joined together to make these photographs on the 12th of July, 2020, using 127-format analogue media - sometimes under the most trying conditions.

If you photograph on film or other analogue media in 127 film format, you're invited to join us for the next 127 Day on the December 7, 2020.

One month till 127 Day - 12th of July, 2020

Recent months have brought upheaval, grief, and rage. The continuing global COVID-19 pandemic kept (and is keeping) many of us in our homes and brought fear, uncertainty, economic devastation, and loss. The horrific murder of George Floyd by police officers became the latest in a centuries-long history of racist violence perpetrated by deeply entrenched systems of white supremacy. I stand in solidarity with the Black community in voicing outrage over this violence and over racism in all its forms.

And ... 127 Day continues as scheduled. Keeping regular, stable routines is one way to help manage stress and uncertainty. The community of this worldwide event is a way we can virtually be together in a traumatic time. And making art can function as a form of self-care, which I think it's probably fair to say we all need these days. 

127 Day is just one month away - on Sunday, the 12th of July, 2020. This would be a good time to make sure your camera is working and you have the film you need.
