Elizabeth Waterman’s MONEYGAME project which focuses on the lives of strippers in a never-before-seen way was awarded three prizes in the renowned Prix de la Photographie, Paris (PX3) International Photo Competition. Her work was awarded the PX3 2018 Gold Winner in the Documentary Category, PX3 2018 Silver Winner in the People Category, and PX3 2018 Honorable Mention. Receiving top honors made it so Ms. Waterman’s work will be a featured part of “The State of the World” as well as the PX3 Annual Book.
“The State of the World” Exhibition in Paris
On July 11th, 2018 a curated photography exhibition, “The State of the World” opened in Paris at the Espace Beaurepaire, and Waterman’s PX3 2018 prize-winning work “Dark Angels” was featured in it. The work was included with 60 other images specially selected by PX3 Founder Hossein Farmani.
The photos tell the stories, good and bad, beautiful and tragic, of people and current events that captivate and shock their audiences. Being able to bring the truth to light, exhibitions such as “The State of the World,” remain an important part of today’s conversation. They are meant to first tell the world’s stories in a way that only a photographer can and to bring recognition to the subjects and the photographers that shoot them.
