Deana Lawson (b. 1979, Rochester, New York) has won the 2022 Deutsche Börse Photography Foundation Prize 2022 for her solo exhibition Centropy held at Kunsthalle, Basel, 9 Jun - 11 Oct 2020. The presentation featured large scale photographs encased in mirrored frames alongside holograms, 16mm projections, video works and smaller images printed on mirrors or decorated with rock crystals.

The jury were unanimous in their decision to award Lawson the prize, regarding her contribution towards photography to be both ground-breaking and urgent. They applauded her beautifully executed, inventive, complex and provocative approach to image making, which, while drawing on traditions of art history and photography, proposes a wholly original arena to reframe and reclaim the Black experience and disrupt narrative and cultural assumptions.
