Statement
The Lost Marriage
When I was ten my parents divorced and they never wanted to talk about it and destroyed pictures of the whole family together. Growing up I always wanted to explore the meaning of marriage. In the last few years, I've been going home to talk to my parents and use my camera to document their lives after the separation. Finally, they gave me a few pictures of me that they each left behind.

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
