It’s our commitment to the future of the industry. Winning entries receive an EIZO ColorEdge monitor and a work placement offer with a leading photographer.

The Brief

Colour is more than a palette; it is life and is present in all aspects that surround it. We want to see how you represent this in your work; what is the significance of colour in the images you create and what are you aiming to communicate through the use of it in your work.

Winners and Shortlist

2020 winners

Robert Kiernander

Arts University Bournemouth

‘Hours Worth’ is a project documenting Robert’s one hour of daily exercise allowed during the Covid 19 lockdown period. The images explore the juxtaposition of a form of freedom within the allocated exercise time and express how isolation made Robert feel.

Udochukwu Emeka-Okafor

Arts University Bournemouth

‘Beings’ is a short fashion film which comments on masculinity and femininity through androgynous fashion. The film tackles gender stereotypes by featuring both male and female models, interchanging their roles through styling and persona.

Zoe Storer

University for the Creative Arts

The series ‘Body’ is a response to coming to terms with body issues. The horror-like, grotesque images of the human body with an oily, moist texture covering the skin, accentuate the human form giving it an effect of raw meat.
