Singapore Young Photographer Award is back for its 8th edition!
For SYPA 2020 Open Call, the theme ZERO aims to provoke rethinking of climate related problems around us and how we should change for a more sustainable future. SYPA invites creative interpretation and presentation of issues that aim for ZERO. It can be about zero waste, zero energy, zero marine pollution that links to UN Sustainable Development Goals 7, 11, 12, 13, 14 and 15.
There will be 2 grand winners and 4 merits recipients receiving cash prizes of S$10,000 and cameras by Canon, the official camera supporter for SYPA 2020. During the open call period, a series of engagement programmes will take place to spur young photographers to explore the theme “ZERO” and to improve on their technical skills to present their submissions.
Submission for the award is open to all students ages 13 to 25 years old in Singapore, including international schools. Participants will submit via online to either the Junior or Youth categories.
This edition would also be the first time that SYPA will be part of the Singapore International Photography Festival. In November 2020, SYPA winners will be announced and their works showcased during the official opening of 7th edition of the Singapore International Photography Festival, one of the biggest photography platforms held in Southeast Asia.
Open Call Deadline: 30 September 2020, 11:59pm Singapore Time, UTC/GMT +8
