    2nd Place in Photojournalism / Gold Winner in Photojournalism/Environmental

Impure is an analog film series shot in areas where chemical pollutants were introduced into the ecosystem. Post-exposure, the film is subjected to a chemical treatment unique to each roll that replicates the pollutants found in each location the photos were shot. While experimental, the goal is to illustrate the impact these chemicals have on the environment despite being invisible to the naked eye.
