Camera & Image was on location in London to participate in the Sony World Photography Awards 2024 - the 17th in order - when the prizes were awarded to this year's winning photographers. This year, over 300,000 entries were submitted, with photographers from over 200 participating countries. No Swede was nominated this year.
This year's grand winner is photographer Juliette Pavy who receives the award "Photographer of the Year" in this year's edition of SWPA 2024 for her series "The Coil Campaign: Forced Contraception and Unintended Sterilisation of Greenlandic Women".
Juliette Pavy's winning series is a documentary project that addresses the issue of the involuntary contraceptive campaign led by the Danish authorities in Greenland during the 1960s-1970s. Thousands of Inuit women as young as 12 years old were given intrauterine contraceptive implants, coils, inserted.
- I am honored to be awarded Photographer of the Year, and that my work has been selected from so many great projects and stories. With this award, I hope to give a voice to those who were silenced for nearly half a century, and to all the women around the world who continue to fight for their rights, says Juliette Pavy during the award ceremony at the Sony World Photography Awards.
This is what the jury's motivation for the prize says:
"The Sony World Photography Awards jury lauded Juliette Pavy's empathetic portrayal of her subjects, capturing them in a manner that is both dignified and profoundly intimate, thereby highlighting her exceptional talent. Pavy's dedication to exposing the stark realities faced by marginalized communities, coupled with her compelling narrative approach, has not only earned her the prestigious recognition from the Sony World Photography Awards but also underscores the jury's belief in her potential and the importance of supporting her career trajectory."
