The Project ISM Artist prize

Artist: ELLARAE
Folio: ALL_IN_ALL
"This shoot was important to me to show the world that fat girls can be sexy too and to open up eyes. My sexuality is one of the most important aspects of myself and for society to turn around and tell me that I cannot be a sexual being purely because I don't fit into the classic model of beauty is a great tragedy."

Artist: POPPY_S
Folio: SILVER_SALT
Poppy_s never saw herself reflected in the mainstream pornographic image. She defined her image through her own lens, and captured more than just her physical form. What emerged was a dance of binaries: private and public, hidden and revealed, sexualised and raw, represented literally in black, white and shades of grey. Congratulations, Poppy_S, on providing ISM with more 'mind masturbation', and winning a much deserved Art Prize!

Artist: ROSE_K
Folio: TOUCHOFFRESHAIR
Rose_K captivated all of us at HQ by wearing her heart on her (ahem) sleeve. With her aura rich in peace and tranquility, she evokes dreams of the kind of hot summer days that seamlessly flow into fervid summer nights. Stirring memories of cycling to meet a lover, arriving sticky with a racing heart, solitary moments of bliss spent sprawled under the protective canopy of treetops, this folio has us longing for the first kiss of the sun's rays. Congratulations Rose_K on breathing a Touch of Fresh Air into the office amidst the throes of winter!
