SHORT LIST
Statement
69days
I traveled around the United States for 69 days. It was some of the most exciting and stimulating days I've ever experienced. Three years have passed since then. The world has become a place where trips like those are no longer possible. Memories are fading fast. I look back at the photos every once in a while so that I can have that kind of trip again.

Jury selection
Judged by Tim Barber:
Inspired by the Grand Prix, Takahashi Miki’s work, I thought it would be fun and interesting to make a compilation of the widely diverse and eclectic work submitted for this contest. When edited and organized, the “memory” submissions, sent in from dozens of artists, become a kind of collective-memory-collage, a dream sequence of disparate clues from a kaleidoscopic narrative.
* This work was included in a curated collection of works selected by the judge Tim Barber from a number of submitted works. See the collection
