Student Shortlist

As a child during World War II, the photographer’s grandmother had next to nothing, so she learned to cherish everything around her, be it an object or a living creature. Today, she arranges her things with tenderness, creating new landscapes with her treasures. This care for the smallest things was the start of the photographer’s fascination with the ‘chaos’ of her grandmother's house, which she hopes to preserve through her photographs.
