Kuala Lumpur International Photoawards

Established in 2009, the Kuala Lumpur International Photoawards (KLPA) is one of the premier contemporary portraiture prizes in Asia, serving as a crucial conduit for photographic discourse between Southeast Asia and the global stage. Acclaimed by industry figures for its commitment to 'fresh and challenging' narratives, the KLPA showcases its awarded pieces at distinguished venues such as the Ilham Gallery and White Box, whilst fostering collaborations with significant international festivals like the Auckland Festival of Photography and Photolux, Italy.
