URBAN Press Award 2023 Winner
Polish author Krzysztof Bednarski has won the very first Press Award with his project Parisian Night Stories. Bednarski is a visual storyteller with a background in branding and motion design. A self-taught Polish documentarian who didn’t turn his focus fully to photography till the mid-2010s. Following his fascination with urban settings, his work revolves around a minimal aesthetic. His carefully constructed compositions are a visual investigation of people’s relationship with their surroundings.
