I am honored and grateful to win this year’s MAST grant. It also feels special to win the prize for a project that I consider personal – one that is rooted in a particular place and time for me.
I would like to salute this year’s jury for welcoming projects that demonstrate an unorthodox and imaginative approach to photography. It proves that one can remain faithful to one’s idea, free from the formal, and often constraining, rules found in many photography competitions. And that’s very comforting.
