SYPA is your stage to showcase creativity, technical finesse, and bold perspectives. Whether you’re a local or an international youth living in Singapore, this is your chance to shine.
From street photography to portraiture and conceptual work, we want to see your strongest, most compelling images. SYPA celebrates the fresh viewpoints and visual storytelling that only young photographers can bring.
This year’s theme, “Echoes of Home,” invites you to explore what home means to you, your community, and the world around you. Create a cohesive body of work responding to the theme and stand a chance to win over $8,000 worth of prizes!
But SYPA isn’t just about the prizes. It’s about amplifying your voice, elevating your craft, and taking your first steps into the photography scene. And here’s the best part: finalists of the 10th SYPA will be showcased alongside the 10th Singapore International Photography Festival (SIPF).
