Self Portraits On Fire is the first and only International Online Photo-Based Gallery and Community Platform that curates, supports, and specializes in Contemporary Fine Art Self-Portraiture. The gallery, solely curated by self-portrait photo artist, Danielle Rackowski, began on October 2, 2020 as an Instagram account supporting and featuring the work of self-portrait photographic artists. Tens of thousands of self-portrait photography submissions on Instagram led the niche platform to expand into a full-fledged online photo-based gallery for self-portrait photo-based artists in late 2021.
Self Portraits On Fire strives to bring accessibility, inclusion, and visibility to all self-portrait photographic art and artists through various curatorial opportunities. Such promotional opportunities include online and virtual exhibitions, featured publications via the Curator's Choice and the Artist Spotlight Blog, and gallery collaborations.
Self Portraits On Fire is dedicated to highlighting, presenting, and preserving the creativity and artistry of all self-portrait photographic art and artists. This is a space for photographic artists to find meaningful connections and visual inspiration. We believe in celebrating community over competition. We welcome and support a diverse range of creative and fine-art photographic styles, genres, and lens-based methods created and/or captured with the photographic medium. The gallery continues to recognize and support self-portrait photographic art and artists through the acceptance of online submissions.
As a growing gallery and community of self-portrait photographic artists, we are committed to exhibiting and showcasing as many self-portrait photographic artists as we can! If you would like to participate in our online gallery, you can:
