Matias Krivich has been working in documentary photography for many years. During this time, he depicted different stories of different people and places. For 25 years, this photographer has shown the face of the earth in his style and style, which has made him the winner of several prestigious world awards, including the World News Photo in 2016.
He has shown poverty in all corners of the world, a phenomenon that somehow emerged from the heart of issues such as traditions, social unrest, and religious matters. In a word, his works are the sound of neglect and inattention we witness daily. Since this photographer is frank and treats people with respect, the people who are the subjects of his works also appear relaxed, natural, and spontaneous in front of his camera. This issue has caused the viewer to establish a better relationship with the spirit of his works and to think and meditate on the depicted subjects.
The winner of the category of young photographers between 15 and 18 years old:
Fardin Oyan, Bangladesh
16-year-old photographer Fardin Ovarian lives in Bangladesh and is currently studying in the 11th grade. Since childhood, he had a strong interest in gadgets, and in the meantime, cameras and photography were more attractive to him. He believes photography is a hobby that never gets old compared to playing computer games.
When Fardin was in seventh grade, he convinced his father to buy him a camera that cost a little over a hundred dollars. He clearly remembers the first time he took a picture with his camera, a picture of two sparrows outside his bedroom window. He says he was so happy in those moments that he cannot describe it in words. At that moment, in his eyes, the camera was like a magic box, and that’s why Fardin decided to pursue photography more seriously. Now photography has become an integral part of his life for a long time.

This photographer’s trip to the island of Mauritius was accompanied by the tropical storm “Cyclone Berguitta,” which caused stress and, of course, problems for all the island residents.

Winning photo – Photographer: Jose Antonio Rosas, Peru
Jose Antonio Roces was born and raised in Lima, Peru. Photography had become his main occupation since 2007, when he first traveled to the polar regions and fell in love with that region’s wildlife and stunning landscapes. Over the next eight years, he tried to combine his love of photography with his career in finance. In 2015, Jose quit his job for a year and enrolled in the International Center of Photography’s online programs.
During this program, he was encouraged to expand his field of activity in this field and make people the subject of his work this time. After completing this program, he decided to devote more time to photography and has now re-enrolled in a one-year photography training program at the exact center.
