For the first time, the competition doesn’t set a theme, allowing every photographer to showcase their distinctive viewpoint.

We invite photographers to submit works characterised by a strong conceptual coherence and a clear artistic vision. We are not necessarily looking for the unprecedented, nor for originality at all costs. Originality may lie in the personal way in which a photographer observes, interprets and renders the reality they depict through the language of photography, the construction of the narrative and the ability to approach familiar subjects or themes from an individual perspective.

A body of work can therefore be original even when the subject matter is not: what matters is the presence of a conscious artistic vision, capable of revealing the project’s underlying structure and identity.
