At the Exposure One Awards 2024 Photographer of the Year contest, Jay Tang received the honor of Exposure One Awards Photographer of the Year (Minimalism) title as well as a nominee in the category Abstract for the abstract photo serie Everyday Landscapes.
This annual competition attracted remarkable submissions from artists worldwide, each bringing a unique perspective to monochromatic photography. Winners were chosen based on their artistic innovation, technical expertise, and the emotional resonance they conveyed by using black, white, and every shade in between.
The Exposure One Awards honor exceptional black and white images that explore the rich traditions and enduring power of black and white photography. Our expert judges for this contest hail from the SF Museum of Modern Art, Conde Nast, Leica Gallery, and others.
Here at Exposure One, we believe that a black and white palette is where the medium of photography comes to life. Our goal is to celebrate the timeless, eternal nature of the monochrome image through the vivid photography of our global community.
