Beebe Healthcare Cape Henlopen High School Photo Competition

Beebe Healthcare is seeking photography to enhance the new Specialty Surgical Hospital at the Rehoboth Health Campus, coming in 2022. This competition for Cape Henlopen High School Students outlines the process for the photography selection for Beebe Healthcare’s new surgical hospital.

Photography Selection

Photography shall be selected based on its suitability for a healing environment. Hospitals can be highly stressful environments for patients and guests. Selected artwork shall positively affect viewers, even promoting a calming response from them. Viewing familiar surroundings can help reduce stress and build a sense of security and comfort. Artwork that has threatening imagery, can be perceived as dangerous, controversial, political or religious imagery will not be considered. 

The Beebe Art Advisory Committee shall select photography that will become part of the Beebe's collection that will be printed and placed in the new hospital. The Committee shall use the following guidelines for selection (in no particular order or priority):

  • Landscapes (regional, generic, or seasonal)
  • Waterscapes (regional, generic, or seasonal), preferably with calm or non-turbulent water
  • Floral (familiar flowers, garden/bouquet style)
  • Flowers in vases (used sparingly for variety)
  • Figurative art (observational rather than interpersonal, people in positive relaxed nature surroundings, diverse, leisurely, etc.)
  • Still-life
  • Nature themes with regional and/or historical imagery.
