EyeTime2015: Winners Announced
On behalf of the competition organizers, collaborators and supporters, the Morpholio Project, Resource Magazine and The Phoblographer congratulate the EyeTime 2015 Winners, Honor Awards and Honorable Mentions. “When judging a collection of work, I look for the artist to tell a story through images that are both coherent and striking. For many, selection and editing, which imparts the maturity of an artist’s skill set, can be the most challenging stage to accomplish.” Said Alexandra Niki, President/ CEO, Resource Magazine. "Looking at some of the work presented in this competition gives me lots of hope and excitement for the future of photography. In a world where everyone is a photographer, this contest still goes to show that it's the creative vision that matters the most at the end of the day.” Said Chris Gampat, Editor in Chief, The Phoblographer. "Seeing the work that these young and up-and-coming photographers are submitting is inspirational to me and a reminder of how many stories are out there to be told." said Pei Ketron.
EyeTime 2015 was assembled as a means to publicly promote the research, exploration and investigation currently happening amongst today's emerging talent. "It's enlightening and inspiring to see photographic work like this, coming from unique, creative and compelling perspectives, all over the world." Said Tracey Clark, Founder / Shutter Sisters. Paul Petrunia, Founder of ARCHINECT notes "This year's finalists display an impressive level of cultural sensitivity and social awareness. At a time when hardware and software technology can make almost anyone look like a skilled photographer, these photographs prove that human perspective plays the most important role in telling a story through imagery." All of the submissions exemplified outstanding work and the competition organizers are grateful for the enormous amount of entrants who were bold enough to confront the world with their voice. “It’s amazing to see photographers with such an amazing vision" said Avi Muchnick, Director of Products at Adobe.
Diana Jou of The Wall Street Journal said. “I am blown-away by the range of topics and locations of the finalists.” With special thanks to the family and friends of Jessica Lum, EyeTime is also announcing two winners for excellence in Photojournalism honoring Jessica. "Jessica Lum is an inspiration to all aspiring young photojournalists. She pursued her passion wholeheartedly and gave voice to the people she photographed. I hope the winners of the Jessica Lum award are continually inspired to share their own voice with the world through telling the stories of others. It is possible to send your message through today's virtual noise. Make it a message worth sending." Said Salgu Wissmath, Photojournalist, Co-founder of Project I AM. On behalf of the competition team, we commemorate Jessica Lum and her work, and offer our condolences to those who knew her.

- Avi Muchnick
Adobe, Director of Products
"It’s amazing to see photographers with such an amazing vision – especially in the Future Voices category where they don’t already have decades of experience to draw from."
- Avi Muchnick
Adobe, Director of Products
"When judging a collection of work, I look for the artist to tell a story through images that are both coherent and striking. For many, selection and editing, which imparts the maturity of an artist’s skill set, can be the most challenging stage to accomplish. But this year, I was incredibly impressed by the maturity of the submitted collections—it made it much tougher to judge!"
- Alexandra Niki
President/ CEO, Resource Magazine
"A lot of good work this year!"
- Mike Kus
Director Mike Kus Ltd
"This year's finalists display an impressive level of cultural sensitivity and social awareness. At a time when hardware and software technology can make almost anyone look like a skilled photographer, these photographs prove that human perspective plays the most important role in telling a story through imagery."
- Paul Petrunia
Founder/Director, ARCHINECT
"another great year with another great group of entries--it's always a blast to spend some time looking through the finalists' collections."
- Tiffany Mueller
Light Stalking Writer and Photographer
"The quality of photos submitted this year was phenomenal."
- Diana Jou
The Wall Street Journal
"it was extremely difficult to narrow it down my top selections!"
- Tiffany Mueller
Light Stalking Writer and Photographer
"What an AMAZING group of photographers this year!"
- Kathryn Roach
Freelance Photo Editor, The New York Times, Marketing Division
"Beautiful work as always."
- Kristen Fortier
Photo Editor
"The process these artists went through to submit is something we can all learn from: Deliberate creation, editing down to only the best, and sending it out into the world. We have removed almost all barriers to publishing things immediately - so it's refreshing when people still elect to step back, curate, select, and make thoughtful statements with their art."
- Jenika McDavitt
Writer & Publisher, Psychology for Photographers
"It was a pleasure reviewing the final collections submitted by the talented photographers in the Eye Time competition. It's enlightening and inspiring to see photographic work like this, coming from unique, creative and compelling perspectives, all over the world."
- Tracey Clark
Founder / Shutter Sisters
"Looking at some of the work presented in this competition gives me lots of hope and excitement for the future of photography. In a world where everyone is a photographer, this contest still goes to show that it's the creative vision that matters the most at the end of the day."
- Chris Gampat
Editor in Chief, The Phoblographer
"A piece of advice to the winners and finalists: use this contest to your advantage. The art world has a lot to do with networking, and no resume will ever be able to replace a solid portfolio and an achievements list. But as with any art form, train yourself to be curatorial."
- Chris Gampat
Editor in Chief, The Phoblographer
"With so many news organizations covering one of the biggest natural disasters this year, Chowdhury's images pointed to those eerie moments - a bloodied cot by the road - that leaves audiences pondering. He captured the light through the Nepal flag when a person reached for the flag atop a rock- the silhouette of the people against a clear blue sky created a striking composition. His three-image submission created sequence that leaves the audience wanting more. Chowdhury's photojournalist work reminds me of my friend Jessica Lum. Both are able to dig deeper into the situation by connecting with people, understanding their grief, respecting it, while documenting it. It is a fine line for photojournalist to walk, and Jessica did that in Seoul while filming a women dealing with a mental illness."
- Diana Jou
The Wall Street Journal
Competition Statement
EyeTime 2015 invites students and young professionals or enthusiasts to submit a collection of their photography comprised of up to three digital images. By submitting your work, we invite you to share your voice with the collective intelligence of a community of visual thinkers. The competition is free to all entrants.
The proliferation of device culture, social networking, and cloud technology are changing the way we create, and connect on a daily basis. For photography, this means that technology is not only transforming the process of production, but also the processes through which we share, critique, and organize ourselves around the work we do. The competition is first, and foremost an experiment in distributed intelligence. By leveraging the "wisdom of crowds" every entrant can see and understand how his or her work is experienced by others. It has been predicted that in 2020, there will be 50 billion mobile internet connections worldwide, the equivalent of seven devices per person. Thus, this competition is not simply about the existence of technology, but rather why and how we harness it as artists.
As the paradigm shift from analog to digital is paired with the emergence of platforms for the digital consumption of images, photography inherently reassess its methods, media and subjects, in order to establish a dialogue with an audience whose visual abilities are increasingly expanded by technology. Thus, this competition challenges you to confront the world with your photography. By sending it out into the field you will test yourself and your work. You are the artist, the curator and the critic. EyeTime 2015 poses the following questions: What are the aspirations by which we evaluate photography today? In an increasingly networked culture, what makes an image capable of cutting through the virtual noise, and starting a new conversation? How do evolving forms of media affect the way in which your message reaches its destination? What is your message?
Eyetime 2015 was assembled by photographers, professors and students as a means to publicly promote the research, exploration and investigation currently happening amongst today's emerging talent. The competition series has been supported by the ICP (International Center of Photography), APA (American Photographic Artists), ADC (Art Directors Club), and is hosted by Morpholio. The guest jury includes participants from The New York Times, The Wall Street Journal, Resource magazine, Light Stalking, Shutter Sisters, Psychology for Photographers, and the ICP. We look forward to your participation.
In Memory of Jessica Lum
Jessica Lum was a young, spirited and extraordinarily talented journalist. As an award-winning photographer, reporter, editor and humanitarian, she dedicated her tragically short career to the needs of giving voice to others. Through her storytelling, Jessica would seek to redefine the "presence" of those telling a story and capturing the moment that is to be preserved. Her approach was best stated in her own words: "To truly understand a story we need a deeper level of interaction. If we desire to truly grasp the full significance of an image that we capture, we need to step out from behind that camera, gain a level of trust and converse with the human people to whom we wish to give voice."
EyeTime 2012 was privileged to have Jessica as an esteemed Jury member and will be forever grateful for her contributions to emerging talents, as well as the profession of Photojournalism. This year, EyeTime will be honoring the mission, voice and work that Jessica shared with the world, a mission captured by her own words: "When I write and when I take pictures, I realize that it isn't me trying to create something, it's me trying to preserve the moment. But in preserving the moment, I'm not trying to battle against the inevitability of time passing. I'm simply trying to understand the moment."
On behalf of the competition organizers, supporters and contributors, we commemorate Jessica Lum and her work, and offer our condolences to those who knew her.
Special thanks to our collaborator Resource Magazine:
Resource Magazine was launched in 2007 as an innovative New York based photo and video production magazine.

Resource has become the staple in the advancement of image making.
Its creative vision, distinguished content and design was built by CEO and President Alexandra Niki,
who has a background in prop styling and set building. Niki’s entrepreneurial mind is now leading Resource Magazine’s
media voice and growing community.
