ARHCHIVE OF THE PHOTO COMPETITION ŠTUDENTSKO OKO (STUDENT'S EYE)

 

It is said a picture tells more than a thousand words. This year’s Študentska arena (i.e. Student Arena – the biggest educational youth fair in Slovenia) has therefore presented all young and promising photographers with a special challenge – to tell a story about the crazy student years in three frames.

At the exhibitions, the ten best photo stories of the photo competition “The Student Eye” are presented. The competition took place as part of the 11^th Študentska arena from 27^th May until 10^th October 2010. More than 49 different authors aged from 18 to 30 years took part and presented themselves with a set of three frames each or 147 photos all together.

The photographs were created on the subject of three commandments of the student life:
•    OVER THE OBSTACLES WITH STUDYING
•    TRAVEL DIFFERENTLY, TRAVEL LIKE A STUDENT
•    STUDENT WORK, UNFORGETTABLE EXPERIENCE

A three-member jury, consisting of young and recognised Slovene photographers CIRIL JAZBEC, MANCA JUVAN, and UROŠ RAVBAR, chose the ten best photo stories displayied below. They also awarded the 1^st and 2^nd prize. The 3^rd prize was awarded by the visitors of the Študentska arena’s website www.dobimo.se for the best photo story of their choice.
