SHORT LIST
Statement
The lovely days
The lovely days with my wife and two sons. A record of them. But photography is a means to a purpose, not the purpose in itself. But I guess it's still the purpose. I'm sorry that I'm not a good photographer. But even so, if I face it and take the shutter firmly in spite of my inferiority, my beloved memories will remain. So, thank you, photography and family.

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
