Shin Kong Mitsukoshi Photography Contest ends 31 October 2024


Deadline: 31 October 2024. Photography can capture a fleeting moment of beauty, document the reality of time, express inner emotions, and showcase artistic aesthetics. In an era where photography equipment is easily accessible, everyone can take photos. However, only those who can clearly convey their unique style through visual art can truly be called “photographers.”

The “SKM PHOTO Shin Kong Mitsukoshi International Photography Contest” is a platform created for professional photographers, serving as a starting point for making your dreams come true. This event encourages photographers to create a series of five works based on self-defined themes, allowing them to “deconstruct” the perspective of visual art in photography. It prompts them to think about the structure and flow of their work, to break down the unique visual elements captured through the viewfinder, and to convey a personal and cohesive creative concept and visual art style. It is a challenge that invites participants to explore their preferred photography styles and embark on a journey towards realizing their dreams!
