WINNER
LIZ LOH-TAYLOR
Singapore-born Australian-based Liz Loh-Taylor was exposed to photography from an early age. Her grandfather was a photographer and her family worked in photo labs.
Perhaps it was a bit of rebellion but she decided to take a completely different route and explored the finance industry for a decade. She didn’t take a serious interest in photography until she was 25. She has pursued projects involving daily life, poverty, social issues, displacement and economic development.
