Placemaking Bangladesh - Stories on Three Wheels

Placemaking Bangladesh, in collaboration with Claymire, invites photographers, illustrators, and filmmakers to participate in Stories on Three Wheels, a creative documentation initiative that explores the cultural and everyday presence of the rickshaw in urban life. Across many cities, the rickshaw is more than a mode of transportation. It is a moving element of the urban landscape that reflects labor, mobility, memory, and everyday social interaction. Through this call, creatives are invited to observe, document, and interpret the diverse stories that unfold around this three-wheeled companion of the street. Submissions may capture moments of movement, stillness, work, companionship, and the many quiet narratives embedded within rickshaw culture. Participants are encouraged to approach the subject through their own visual language and perspective.
