Heres what the judge said. I feel hugely honoured. Corey Keller Curator of Photography San Francisco Museum of Modern Art San Francisco, CA, USA Corey Keller selects Sian Davey, Totnes/ Brighton, United Kingdom, for her series, “Finding Alice” “Sian Daveys work stood out for me on each pass through the submissions. Though her subject is intensely personal, the photographs, to me, transcend that specificity and tell a more universal narrative about love, childhood, and family that any viewer could understand. Daveys work has a rawness, a vulnerability that I responded to profoundly, and I appreciated the understatedness of her approach. In less capable hands, a similar project could have felt emotionally manipulative or even exploitative, but there is none of that here. Deeply felt without being sentimental, the work is at once tender and beautifully seen.”
