Dear All
Hi, this is Tomomichi Nakamura from Tokyo.
I am very happy and honor to inform you that I have awarded the Grand Prize
at the 2019 New Cosmos of Photography.
In particular, I would like to express my deep gratidue to the staff members of Canon,
judeges, and friends who sincerely supported me on this occasion.
best wishes,
Tomomichi Nakamura
This work was secretly produced with the help of a few collaborators in the hours I was able to move, after being discharged from the hospital last year.
First, I would like to thank my collaborators: Shiho Tsukikage, Kouhei Kawabata, and Michiko Kawabata. I am delighted to have been able to reciprocate their kindness with the results of our project.
One of the most significant rewards of winning the Grand Prix is the opportunity to hold a solo exhibition at the Tokyo Metropolitan Museum of Photography during the Photography New Century 2020 next year. I am committed to continuing my efforts, including preparing for this upcoming exhibition.
Thank you very much.
Tomomichi Nakamura
PS: This award for my work was the result of strong encouragement from Rineke Dijkstra and Paul Graham.
