The Sony World Photography Awards are a photography competition supported by Sony and first held in 2007, with the aim of contributing to the development of photographic culture.
The Awards consist of four competitions: Professional (10 categories), Open (10 categories), Youth (aged under 19) and Student, and provides platforms catered to every stage and genre of photography. The Awards also recognise a person or a group of people that have made a significant impact on the medium of photography through the Outstanding Contribution to Photography. This year's recipient is the Japanese photographer Rinko Kawauchi. In addition, the Awards celebrate local photographic talents from around the world through the National & Regional Awards. All images entered in the Open Competition are automatically eligible for the National & Regional Awards.
A brand-new prize was launched this year, the Sustainability Prize. Developed in partnership with the United Nations Foundation and Sony Pictures' Picture This initiative*, the prize recognises photographers who are passionate about communicating the stories, people and organisations whose actions highlight one of the Sustainable Development Goals.
Winners receive a prize package that includes a cash reward and the latest Sony digital imaging equipment as well as opportunities such as inclusion in international exhibitions and in the Sony World Photography Awards book, and media exposure on a worldwide level.
More than 415,000 images from 206 countries and regions were submitted to the Sony World Photography Awards 2023. This exhibition presents the winning entries from across the Awards' competitions.
