We are thrilled to announce the winners of THE FENCE, an annual outdoor photography exhibition that will travel to Brooklyn Bridge Park, Boston, Atlanta, Houston, Santa Fe, Durham, Denver, Calgary (Canada) and Sarasota.

The FENCE 2018 features a diverse roster of 41 photographers hailing from around the globe. They share stories across seven thematic categories - Streets, People, Home, Play, Nature, Food, Creatures - which we hope you’ll find compelling.

Additionally, we will exhibit five Regional Showcases featuring photographers based in New England, New Mexico, the North Carolina Triangle region, Colorado, and Western Canada.

THE FENCE 2018 has truly been a community endeavor. We’re grateful to all the photographers who shared their work through our submission call, to our dedicated jury members who contributed their time and expertise, and to our wonderful partners in each of our host cities for helping us share this work to an ever-growing audience. We're excited to welcome you, the audience, into our community. Everyone is welcome!

Look out for an education resource guide that will help visitors of all-ages to engage with the exhibition (a big thanks to our partners at PhotoWings who have helped make this possible).

Without further ado, we’re pleased to introduce you to the photographers of THE FENCE 2018!

You may browse each series by clicking the titles below.
We invite you to cast your vote for the People’s Choice award.
