lou_d//"motorhead"
Lou_D is not a lady we would have had pinned as a cycle babe – but then again, most ladies defy our expectations, if only because appearances are often deceiving. Nevertheless, we do think she looks rockin in leather, and we’re keeping our eyes peeled for her peeling out in front of us on the street.

Gladys//"plenty"
Gladys is one of the cheeriest ladies you could care to meet, and she could shoot herself in the most squalid of conditions and still shine so much brightness into her photos. Fortunately she’s actually working with one of the most comfy-looking spaces one could imagine, and you’re even allowed to put your feet on the couch.

lydia_l//"balloonogram"
Oh, why can’t all of the to-your-door balloonograms be like this one? No more disgruntled middle-aged out-of-work actors ringing your doorbell on behalf of your admirers, no – just a whole lot of Lydia_Ls on a mission to deliver the joy – and whether it’s the balloons or the courier herself is up to you to decide.

frengki//"boardbabe"
This little-known blast from ISM”s past has another offering for us today in an attempt to prove that you don’t actually need water to go surfing. I don’t know if she’s developed much of a following for her lawnsurfing club, but I think she looks better as a one-woman outfit anyway.

angie_b//"fluffies"
So many kittehz haz so many partiez with the naked ladiez! This folio is truly the sweetness, and if it doesn’t make you feel all warm and fluffy inside, we recommend that you consider yourself a healing retreat or some other form of therapy. Or maybe just get yourself a kitten – that makes everything better.

portia//"ritual_2" Video
Dance the dance of life with Portia - no, really, you've got plenty of space around you there. How can you resist when she makes it look so good? This lady's got an old and earthy soul that we're privileged to have witnessed here.

ness//"segmentia"
Ness does some creative self-segmentation in this set, which is perhaps where she started to ‘learn to love the parts she’s not so keen on’. There’s nothing like some literal self-reflection to get you digging on your absolute and holistic beauty, and Ness is onto that like brown on rice.

foofoolala//"humantribe"
With a name like Foofoolala, you might expect a rather light-hearted, silly folio – and certainly there’s a light spirit to her images. But she’s also used her body as a canvas to address something that is both uniquely Australian and universal to the whole human tribe.

letisha//"pathway"
Letisha’s sporting a new ‘do and a slightly more daring approach to creating for ISM – this time she’s ventured outside her four walls and down the winding path to enjoy the feeling of piling her clothes up in the grass. I wonder how many others travel down that winding path on a daily basis…

niansa//"lanewayz"
By night, who knows what goes on here – but by day, Niansa takes a sneaky opportunity to capture a killer set that reflects both her colourful personality and her excitement about revealing her body to the world. She may just walk down that alleyway again someday to find the paparazzi waiting there on the hard rubbish.

iris_p//"take_pause"
Iris P is surrounded by the unique moods provided by the layout of her uniquely beautiful home, and she explores that in a way that stops in each one to idle there and absorb its particular energy. Her stillness slows down the speed of our very lives and pumps the silence of space into our ears.

portia//"ritual_1" Video
There are lots of ways to honour oneself, and Portia combines a few of them in this part-ritual, part-exposé. The running water provides a most fitting sonic backdrop to the soothing sounds of her voice and her music.

alexia_laro//"monkeybars"
You may have avoided it when you were younger so as to protect yourself from the embarrassment of falling off, but now you’ve got nothing to lose, especially if your monkeybars are as abandoned as these ones are. This playful debut makes the back of our knees ache from the friction of hours spent swaying upside-down.

del//"dressups"
The kids these days have so many styles to choose from, and this 80s-trash-glam-with-a-touch-of-roaring-20s kit is a fine example of how postmodernity has made us more fashionable than we’ve ever been. Dreamy Del plays dressups to dress right down to her very flesh.

cinny_d//"ablaze"
Cinny_D returns to ISM with a little more of that golden glow she shared with us last year. She seems to have a firm grasp on how to make that natural glow brighter and brighter until we start to fear that she may combust – so much warm energy spills from her that we’re all feeling the heat.
