SONY STUDENT GRANT
Since the inauguration of the Sony World Photography Awards over a decade ago, Sony have aimed to inspire and excite photographers through innovation of digital imaging products and support of their talent.
Through the Sony World Photography Awards we can celebrate fantastic and ambitious photographers. With Sony, we are constantly looking at how we can further develop our support of individual photographers.
In demonstration of the Awards’ commitment to create opportunities for its photographers, Sony has once again awarded a number of photographers from the 2017 Sony World Photography Awards, whilst also introducing a new grant programme for those participating in the Student Focus competition.
Continuing to engage with the next generation of photographers, three young artists shortlisted in the 2017 Student Focus competition were commissioned to create a new body of work. Working together as a collective across three continents, the photographers were challenged discover “How photography transforms our encounters with everyday objects?”
The three photographers are:
Shravya Kag | USA | School of Visual Arts, New York
Tatsuki Katayama | Japan | Kyoto University of Art and Design
Sarah Schrimpf | Germany | Akademie der Bildenden Künste München
