Hi everyone,
I would like to start giving my own personalized recognition called The Fleeting (In)Significance Award (TFIA).
This personalized award recognizes photography that gives dignity to the overlooked, the fragile, and the deeply human.
It honors images that capture human-ness, frailty, reality, sadness, ugliness, honesty, and truth. These are moments that often live far from the spotlight but still deserve to be seen, understood, and even celebrated.
This award is for work that goes beyond what is immediately pleasing or familiar. It reaches past the conscious eye and enters the subconscious, even the unconscious, where memory, discomfort, dreams, fear, longing, and meaning quietly live. It celebrates images brave enough to disturb, question, and reveal.
These are photographs that may not always be easy, but they are honest. They remind us that even what seems fleeting or insignificant can carry beauty, weight, and humanity.
I will not be giving this award frequently, but when an image truly speaks to this idea, I would love to recognize it. I also welcome nominations through DM, as long as the image is no longer in the voting process. If you see an old or new photo (not in voting process) that feels honest, human, overlooked, or quietly powerful, feel free to send it to me after voting has ended so I can review it. Thank you very much. 🫶
