The Female in Focus awards are set against the backdrop of International Women's Day, with this year's theme being Renewal. This theme is embodied in Margarita Galandina's project, Ovoo, which reflects her Buryat Indigenous heritage through sacred totem poles. Alice Poyzer's series, Other Joys, explores her own experiences as a woman with autism, using visuals to convey complex emotions and traits often overlooked in female diagnoses. Additionally, Florence Bass documents the Lesbian community's celebrations on Lesbos, while the concept of 'el bravo pueblo' serves as a tribute to the resilience of Venezuela and its people amidst adversity.
