The Pure Street Photography Awards have announced their 2026 winners, choosing eight exceptional photographers who embody the ethos of the awards. This ethos emphasizes the importance of street photography as a means to capture the human experience with honesty, sensitivity, and powerful visual storytelling. Dimpy Bhalotia, the Co-founder and Creative Director of Pure Street Photography, emphasizes that "Street photography begins with honesty.
It doesn’t wait for perfection or performance. It asks us to notice what everyone else walked past. Every photograph in this exhibition is a reminder that life doesn’t become meaningful just because it is extraordinary. It becomes meaningful because someone truly saw it."
The 2026 winners are featured alongside 158 finalists at the Jawahar Kala Kendra, Jaipur, India, from November 20-22, 2026. This exhibition is set to be the largest dedicated showcase of contemporary street photography in the country. The year's competition featured two categories: Monochrome and Open, and a winner was selected in each. These photographers will compete for the 2027 awards, which include three distinct categories - Colour, Black and White, and Animal - with a cash prize and exhibition for the Grand Winner.
