#1. 1st Place Winner: "Color Conversation" by Gleici Rufatto

2024 Abstract Minimalist Photography Awards

"A series of geometric images that explore the interplay of color, form, and material, capturing an essence reminiscent of architectural elements. Each piece is centered on abstract forms within the built environment, presenting a visual journey that challenges perceptions and creates a color dialog that invites viewers to consider how colors interact and influence one another within a structured composition."

#2. 2nd Place Winner: "Magic Angles" by Matthias Yamakasino Brandt

2024 Abstract Minimalist Photography Awards

"I took these pictures in Switzerland, the Canary Islands, Austria and Spain. My goal as a photo artist is to find angles that reveal unexpected beauty in the mix of geometrical shapes and colors. The simplicity invites you to eventually almost forget, that you are looking at actual buildings. This is when the magic happens and you sink into the picture and forget about everything around."
