9th Julia Margaret Cameron Awards / Winner
It's been a beautiful few months since I finalized my most important
photography project so far. It cumulates some enormous emotions that
were expressed not with words but with my sitters' bodies.
531 women photographers from 50 countries have submitted for this
year edition 9th Julia Margaret Cameron Award // Gala Awards ... and
there is one winner in Nude and Figure category for a series of
images... and it is my #CognitiveBodies
series that features some awesome people I had that privilege to work
with. Winning 9th Julia Margaret Cameron Award with Nude was Marta's
entry to Berlin Photo Biennial 2016.
In this very touching moment I have to admit that production on that
series ended up really hard time in my life and I am enormously happy
seeing the light as the new series is beautifully appreciated by
international professionals.
Other Awards for the series:
PX3 Paris 2016 - Honorable Mention
MIFA / Moscow International Foto Awards - Honorable Mention in Fine Art / Nude
Fine Art Photography Awards 2nd Nude
I am thankful and enormously proud.
