The 28 photos will be published by arts non-profit Photolucida, which provides platforms to grow and foster the photography community.<\/p>\n<p>The Critical Mass Awards provide emerging and mid-career artists from around the world with career-building opportunities.<br \/>\nFriend has worked on Dare Alla Luce for the past three years, after she collected vintage photographs from anonymous and personal sources.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Through hand-manipulated interventions I altered and subsequently re-photographed the images, re-making photographs that oscillate between what is present and what is absent,&#8221; Friend wrote about the Dare Alla Luce, which is Italian for \u2018to bring to light.&#8217;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I aim to comment on the fragile quality of the photographic object but also on the equal fragility of our lives, our history.
