While we are schooled by our past through the paths of our ancestors and history, we also learn from the future generation who are free from established concepts. The world is updated at every stage, and stories beyond our imagination are weaved daily. It is thus impossible to decipher everything with a fresh perspective. IMA, since its first issue, has always searched for brilliant young talents focusing on their own viewpoints. The constantly renewed list of emerging photographers and their works as a map, it feels like we have been walking in a world of chaos.
In this volume, we have selected 12 noteworthy artists from 2023. As ones with the hidden power of redefining the future aspects of photography, they are an impressive group of talent who are reshaping our fixed values.
