Some 45 photographs out of 400 submissions from Qatar residents have been selected for the ‘Shoot and Show your Profession’ exhibition jointly organised by Katara – the Cultural Village, Youth Hobbies Centre, and Bedaya Centre.
In a statement, Katara said the exhibition revolves around a photography and videography competition, where participants are asked to capture a picture or a video that clearly displays their profession.
The launch of the exhibition also saw the awarding of the top three winners in the photography and videography competitions, which started on October 1 and concluded December 21.
In the photography category, cash awards were given to Ronald Vinluan who won the first place followed by Mohamed al-Yaf’ie (second place) and Aisha al-Ansari (third place).
Winners for the videography contest include Mohamed al-Ameen (first place), Fatima Mohamed (second place), and Mohamed al-Yaf’ie (third place).
The exhibition was inaugurated by Katara deputy general manager Ahmad al-Sayed, Youth Hobbies Centre general manager Mohamed al-Hajri, and the Bedaya Centre general manager Reem al-Suwaidi.
The competition is in line with Katara’s efforts to educate and involve the public in initiatives that combine arts with daily life.
