"Coincidence is around every corner, and immortalizing a split second of fleeting chaos takes a special eye. Since 2020, Pure Street Photography -an initiative focused on connecting international photographers-has commended visual storytellers through an annual competition. This year's edition drew an impressive 1,160 submissions across 34 countries and five continents. Judged by British writer and curator David Campany alongside founder Dimpy Bhalotia, a total of 147 winning and finalist images were chosen."
"From capturing unfortunately humorous moments before disaster to documenting endearing instances of whimsy, the wide range of winning images evoke a spectrum of expressions. Together, they mirror the distinct emotions one might feel while walking down the street, embodying the authentic spirit of the medium. In a large-scale exhibition at Mumbai's Jehangir Art Gallery, each winning image will be on view in January 2026. In the meantime, check out the online gallery and Pure Street Photography's Instagram."
