DameSarah
says... nio - thank you for your lovely comments, and congrats on the art prize! you deserve it more than any artist on this site - i keep coming back to this folio again and again and i find something wonderful and new every time. my faves today are 13 and 56) if you ever do come to CA be sure to look me up!!
I pulled a tarot card for you - the 7 of cups. this is such a cool card! you can see a picture of it here: http://www.astrologysoftware.com/tarot/decks/aquarian/Cups07-b.jpg
As you can see, there are all kinds of crazy things bubbling out of the cups - a head, a hand holding a flowering rod, a flower, a snake, a rainbow, some fruit, and a crazy helmet with goggles and cords attached to it!! This card can symbolize visions or dreams, or strong desires and an active imagination. The cups are the suit of the physical and emotional self, and as such this card may also signify emotional options or choices, or simply joy and abundance!

shannon
says... This is totally being filed in my brain as one of the best ISM shoots of all time. 5:25PM May 8th 2009
DameSarah
says... I looooooove this folio!!! reminds me of marilyn minter - grotesque and fantastically beautiful all at once, it complicates humans' unfortunate tendency toward simplistic binary thinking. creepy/sexy? human/monster? porn/art? NO! just fucking awesome. 4:24PM May 8th 2009

juvenon
says... Fantastic phantasmagoria. You sure hit some buttons all right, but I'm not quite sure which ones yet. A solo carnival, brilliant idea and brilliantly done. And a great comment about the Martha Stewarts of porn. 6:12AM May 8th 2009

VeronicaF
says... Yays for nio! This is so amazing. You know in 013 your eyes glow with all of the same colours as your body paint. So sparkly but creepy. 2:22AM May 8th 2009

gala
says... So. Fucking. Intense. 090 needs to be put somewhere in ISM promo material, that's a gem. Christ, my dear - if this is my first look at your artwork, I can't imagine what else there must be... 1:53AM May 8th 2009
adele_w
says... This is really and truly one of the masterpieces of ISM. It's powerful, sublimely unsettling, wild, mad, primal, psychedelic - quite a few of my favourite things. Nio, I wanna join in your beastly cackling underworld mardi gras!! 12:53AM May 8th 2009
bobby_h
says... Oh wow, this is so ace! I love 107 and 98 and 63 and especially your monsters, they're wonderful and so are you!
