A call for unrealized projects

Unlike unrealized architectural projects, which are frequently exhibited and circulated, unrealized artworks tend to remain unnoticed or little known. But perhaps there is another form of artistic agency in the partial expression, the incomplete idea, the projection of a mere intention? Agency of Unrealized Projects (AUP) seeks to document and display these works, in this way charting the terrain of a contingent future.

For example, a photograph could capture London at 4 a.m., Lisbon at 2 p.m. or Dubai at 9 p.m. Participants can enter a photograph for each hour of the day, allowing a maximum of 24 submissions.
