Jury report

In the world of images, as in any creative profession, the notions of reference, inspiration and indeed appropriation are hot topics these days. Tamara Janes’s work questions the concept of the author –more precisely the author’s rights, a subject that currently occupies a lot of legal experts’ time. Copyright Swap thus addresses a central question in an age of digital tools that are increasingly muddying the waters.
