Isadora Romero won 1st Place in the Environment category in the Sony World Photography Awards Professional competition for 'Notes on How to Build a Forest'.

⭐ Romero is an Ecuadorian photographer and visual artist. Her long-term projects focus on social and environmental justice in Latin America, using documentary and experimental photography to explore the relationship between territory, memory and ecology.

📷 Notes on How to Build a Forest is a photographic project developed in Ecuador, in the territories of Mache Chindul and Yunguilla — landscapes marked by layered histories of settlement and relationships with the forest. Through documentary and experimental photography that includes infrared, thermal, and pinhole techniques, as well as community archives intervened with fungi, the photographer invites us ‘to imagine how other organisms perceive the forest, and how the forest, in turn, observes us’.

In dialogue with scientific knowledge, the work constructs a polyphonic narrative that understands forests as plural, complex, and cultural spaces, expanding the ways in which conservation can be conceived.

Dafna Talmor won 1st Place in the Landscape category in the Sony World Photography Awards Professional competition for 'Constructed Landscapes'.

⭐
Talmor, a London-based artist, is a Royal Photographic Society Honorary Fellow with work in collections including the National Trust, V&A Museum and Deutsche Bank, and in publications such as The Women Who Changed Photography and Constructed Landscapes, her monograph published by Fw:Books, longlisted for the Kraszna-Krausz Photography Book Award in 2021.

📷
Stemming from the photographer's personal archive, this series employs hand-printed and collaged colour negatives that are reconfigured into abstracted landscape representations. Purposefully undisclosed locations — sites that may otherwise be loaded with personal and political connotations — are collaged and repurposed, transforming them into spaces of greater universality.

Alluding to idealised and utopian spaces, these staged landscapes reference the histories of photography, from Pictorialist combination printing processes to contemporary discourse, conflating the ‘real’ and the imaginary.

Joy Saha won 1st Place in the Architecture & Design category in the Sony World Photography Awards Professional competition for 'Homes of Haor'. 🏆

⭐ Saha specialises in capturing compelling human and environmental stories through the lens. His projects highlight daily life, vulnerable communities and the impacts of climate change, using photography as a powerful tool to shift perspectives and inspire action.

📸 Homes of Haor 📸

Homes of Haor documents the vernacular architecture of Ashtagram, Kishoreganj, in Bangladesh’s Haor region. Here, homes are built on naturally raised mounds that become islands during the monsoon, surrounded by seasonal floodwater, and boats become the primary means of travel.

From above, the settlements form distinct patterns shaped by elevation, water and function. Elevated roads, clustered dwellings, and carefully arranged livestock spaces reveal how rural communities design and adapt their built environment to a landscape defined by water.
