As part of the FUTURES Photography platform, the four selectees will gain access to professional development opportunities, networking, and mentorship within an international photography community. Their winning projects will also be exhibited as a part of this year’s Copenhagen Photo Festival at the venue VÆKST on Refshaleøen from 12 June 2025.
