WINNERS

Polaroid Emulsion Lifts

  • Photographer
    Kyriakos Tarassidis, Germany
  • Prize
    Gold Winner in Technique/Instant

The portraits presented by Kyriakos Tarassidis are part of an ongoing body of work, journeying through analogue formats and our subjective internal worlds. The process of Polaroid Emulsion Lifts offers new opportunities to manipulate the image. The fragility of this process highlights the duality of freedom in creation; the excitement of shaping something that isn’t yet, in all its unforeseen possibilities, and the fear of destroying what is.
