A Hungarian photographer among the Sony World Photography Awards finalists – PHOTOS
Change language:
The Sony World Photography Awards is one of the most important photography events in the world, where over 300 thousand photographers entered. Among the bests of these is the work of a young Hungarian photographer, Dalma Szondy.
The World Photography Organisation has organised this year as well the prestigious Sony World Photography Awards, where a record number of photographers entered in four different categories: altogether 326 997 entrees were counted from 195 countries. The shortlisted images in the categories Open and Youth were published,
among the best ones is Mindennapi konstruktivizmus (Everyday Constructivism – ed. transl.) by Dalma Szondy in the Still Life subcategory.
Dalma revealed to Szeretlek Magyarország that she took the photo in the parking lot of a supermarket in Debrecen. She commented that as human beings we tend not to notice or not care about the numerous manifestations of beauty that surround us: ‘If we walk with an open eye, then we can notice how marvellous simple objects can actually be.’
Photography is something new and old at the same time for Dalma, who had a keen eye for her surroundings and with the help of a camera and the support from her family, she was already clicking as a schoolgirl.
Today, Dalma is a Psychology major at Pázmány Péter Catholic University, but because of the tremendous amount of courses focusing on theory, she felt like she needed something creative in her life, that is why she returned to photography.
