WINNERS

Listening Before Seeing

  • Photographer
    Masashi Kokuba, Japan
  • Prize
    Honorable Mention

Every photograph begins with time. I wait with the plants. I keep looking. Using a Multi Prism filter, I photograph banana leaves that later become the source of the developer I make from local plants. The plants remain present throughout the process, from the first look to the final image. Each photograph leaves room for looking a little longer.
