Artist Comments
“I am truly honored to be among the 14 Professional Photographers who were shortlisted in the London International Creative Competition 2019. In total 100 design and projects were shortlisted from work across a diverse range of formats, from painting to printmaking and from fashion to photography”.
LONDON INTERNATIONAL CREATIVE COMPETITION
Since starting out in 2006, the London International Creative Competition has been recognising and rewarding the world’s most fresh and progressive talents. Our artists are connected not by conventions, but by qualities. We’re not looking for anything done by-the-book. We’re looking for work that is as visual as it is vital.
The LICC is a way for the visionaries to really stand out from the crowd. We’re here to help cultivate creativity, to help artists push boundaries and break down walls. The LICC isn’t here to plant seeds, but to help them grow. We’re keen to hear from people who look at life a little differently, who fit squares into circles and for whom the ordinary can be truly, truly extraordinary.
