Mono Orbit Awards is designed to support photographic work beyond the announcement of results.
Each edition brings together financial awards, editorial presentation and opportunities for selected photographers to reach a wider international audience.
CASH AWARDS
First Prize - €900
Second Prize - €700
Third Prize - €500
Honourable Mentions may also be awarded to selected works.
WINNERS SHOWCASE
Awarded and selected photographs will be presented in a dedicated Winners Showcase on the Mono Orbit Awards website.
Each presentation may include the selected work, the photographer’s profile, project context and links to their wider practice.
EDITORIAL PRESENTATION
The overall winner will be invited to take part in an interview or editorial feature exploring their photographic practice, creative process and relationship to the built environment. Selected photographers may also be featured through future editorial content across the Mono Orbit platform.
DIGITAL CERTIFICATES
Winners and recipients of Honourable Mentions will receive official digital certificates recognising their achievement.
SOCIAL MEDIA FEATURES
Awarded and selected work will be presented through dedicated features across Mono Orbit Awards social media channels.
Our aim is to give each selected photograph space, context and visibility rather than presenting the results only as a single announcement.
PHOTOBOOK
Selected work may be considered for inclusion in future Mono Orbit publications and photobooks developed around individual editions, themes or the wider built environment.
Publication opportunities will depend on the development, funding and partnerships of each project.
EXHIBITIONS
Mono Orbit Awards aims to develop exhibition opportunities for awarded and selected work in Europe.
The location and format may change between editions, allowing each presentation to respond to its theme, participating photographers and available partnerships.
Exhibition opportunities will be announced separately as each edition develops.
PARTNERS & FUTURE OPPORTUNITIES
Additional recognition, opportunities and partner-supported awards may be introduced as Mono Orbit Awards develops.
These may include publications, exhibitions, editorial collaborations, equipment-related support or other opportunities created with our partners.
Any additional benefits will be announced only once they are confirmed.
Recognition should extend beyond the result.
