Following the announcement of season three of the Creator Labs Photo Fund this past summer, Google’s Creator Labs and Aperture have just announced the winners.

Serving as an initiative established to provide financial support to young artists and help promote visibility for their work at formative times in their burgeoning careers since 2021, Creator Labs Photo Fund’s third season further establishes the unwavering mission of supporting rising image makers. With Aperture, the New York-based, nonprofit publisher of books, exhibitions, digital platforms, public programs, limited-edition prints, awards, and a quarterly magazine that has created conversations around photography worldwide since 1952, the Creator Labs Photo Fund will provide one-time $6,000 grants and a Google Pixel device to thirty artists working in photography and lens-based practices in the United States.

Explore themes of capitalism and colonialism, immigration and the actions of assimilation, the need for self-love, familial and cultural exploration through archives, heritage and its relation to identity, the 2024 winners bring diverse perspectives to their bodies of work, hailing from Arkansas, California, Connecticut, Georgia, Illinois, Louisiana, Maine, Missouri, New Jersey, New York, Oregon, Rhode Island, Texas, Utah and Washington.

This year’s winners are Farah Al Qasimi, Luke Austin, Bruce Bennett, Morganne Boulden, Harlan Bozeman, Oyè Diran, Brayan Enriquez, Camille Farrah Lenain, Naima Green, Pia Paulina Guilmoth, Shravya Kag, Mary Kang, Brian Van Lau, Spandita Malik, Dom Marker, Ana Rosa Marx, Will Matsuda, Steven Molina Contreras, Rachelle Mozman Solano, Mathilde Mujanayi, Anh Nguyen, Mateo Ruiz González, Nathan Olsen, Obinna Onyeka, Andina Marie Osorio, Tanner Pendleton, Chris Perez, Jennifer Sakai, Rachel Elise Thomas and Jaclyn Wright.

“Aperture is excited to recognize the depth and rigor of these thirty selected artists. Our partnership with Google on the Creator Labs Photo Fund remains central to our mission to support artists and shape critical dialogues about photography today.”
