Honorable Mention / 2021 / Portraiture / Self-Portrait
My child
Self-portrait of me losing my child in late pregnancy.
Annemarie Spilker (born 1980, The Netherlands) is a Dutch fine-art photographer best known for her self-portraits and landscapes. She graduated cum laude from the Photo Academy in Amsterdam in 2003 with an impressive series of self-portraits titled "Searching to fill the emptiness...".
Her style is best described as penetrating self-portraits with an uncomfortable and confronting atmosphere, in which she searches for the hidden places in her own feelings. The landscapes show an unprecedented silence and timelessness that appear almost unreal.
