Winner of the 2026 Sony World Photography Awards, Open Competition, Object.
A blue Ford Cortina sits against the vividly painted houses of Bo Kaap, Cape Town, where bands of green, pink and blue divide the frame into distinct fields of colour.
At first glance, the image appears playful and graphic, almost abstract. Yet the title, Colour Divides, carries a quieter historical resonance, reflecting the ways colour has shaped ideas of separation, space and identity within South Africa.
Made while walking through Bo Kaap, the photograph emerged from an instinctive moment in which colour, form and place briefly aligned, bringing geometry, architecture and history into the same frame.
