The Light Work Grants in Photography program is a part of Light Work’s ongoing effort to provide support and encouragement to artists working in photography. Established in 1975, it is one of the longest-running photography fellowship programs in the country.

Each recipient receives a $2,000 award, has their work exhibited at Light Work and published in Contact Sheet: The Light Work Annual. The judges for this year were Natasha Egan (executive director, Museum of Contemporary Photography), Taj Forer (co-founder, Daylight Books) and Paul Moakley (deputy photo editor, TIME).

His photographic and visual art has been shown at Visual Studies Workshop in Rochester, the Spark Art Gallery in ���ϲ����� and at the NoFound Photo Fair in Paris. Recent efforts have been focused on producing ’zines and artist books, musical endeavors and the administrative maintenance of BADLANDS, an all-ages, DIY art and music space in ���ϲ�����. Over the past seven years, Clement has performed in various hardcore-punk/noise groups across the greater eastern half of the country. The do-it-yourself ethic, the antisocial, violent and anti-capitalist character of noise and hardcore-punk music all play a major role in Clement’s thinking about visual art.
