About Awards
The platform is open to photographers of all genders, nationalities and backgrounds.
This is not a competition about technical excess.
It is a space for strong ideas, clear visual language and disciplined expression.
Evi Mono Awards is built around more than recognition. As the platform develops, part of the support we receive may be directed towards selected initiatives related to women, education, visual culture or research. We believe visual culture can do more than circulate. It can direct attention, create value and support real work beyond the screen. Supported initiatives will be published transparently as the platform develops.
How It Works
Evi Mono Awards runs twice a year.
Each edition has one announced theme.
Participants may submit one work per category for the current edition.
Submissions are free.
No account is required.
All eligible works are reviewed after the submission period closes. Selected, shortlisted or awarded photographers may be published on the Evi Mono Awards website, social media, and newsletter.

Our story
Founder Note
Evi Mono Awards was created by a photographer who believes that access matters. The award is free to enter because a strong photograph should not depend on the photographer’s ability to pay an entry fee.
The project is dedicated to monochrome photography about women and to work built with clarity, restraint and purpose. It exists as a simple platform: free to enter, clear in its rules and open to photographers from different backgrounds.
