daniella//"unda"
This water nymph plunges into the depths of ocean peaks and into the psychology of water intoxication. Check out her other folios for more bathroom, foamy fun.

violet_fairy & wildee//"loveandwar_2"
In this world of restriction, of composure, of ‘the respectable’, there is no great war whoop as loud as stripping off one’s clothes and rolling around in the underbrush. After seeing Violet_Fairy and Wildee do just that, I still don’t know what I’d do if I met them in combat – though I secretly hope they’d just take me prisoner.

lotte//"spacetime"
We’ve launched the Large Hadron Collider (LHC): and the results are in. Time is compressing itself; it’s nature expressed as a simultaneous slowing conversely measured as increasingly speeding up. An enigma that can only be explained through photographs and interpretive dance.

sophie_c//"shakti"
Sophie_c is human to be divine. She releases her creative side with warrior force in her bodily piercings, riding the tiger flame in true feminine style. Humbly we are seduced. Especially by pic 237!

dale//"gish"
In her first ISM shoot, Dale presents a personal look at herself. In a weird way, this shoot is almost musical as Dale shows us her most favourite things, her body and the way she lives her beautiful life.

lia//"oneirica"
Lia falls on and off our radar from time to time, and it seems that she’s got some sort of re-invention of self every time she comes back on. This is a stark contrast from her only ISM folio to date – even we had to look twice to recognise her – but it’s done with the dense, dark thoughtfulness that is her signature.

naledi//"dosshouse"
There’s more than a touch of ‘Stage door’ in Naledi’s bathroom safari. With an eye for the pose, the ISM South African beauty brings a sparkle to the doss-house bathroom fixtures with which she poses.

nerea//"piqued"
When shooting oneself, the general rule is that there’s nowhere to go but up. It’s like any sort of artistic practice – you learn by doing and you do better each time. Nerea is a case-in-point, and while of course we don’t wish to diminish her first contribution, we do think that this is a pretty amazing follow-up.

juju//"livingjuju"
Juju weaves her magic from her living room in Seychelles. Not a bad place to start from for this Cancerian girl. We’re in love with her oceans of smile, her lithe contortions and expressions that bounce the mood, island hopping from one great shot to the next.

bobby//"nudelands_2" Video
Continue with Bobby on her journey through the land to which she does and does not belong. Knowing more about the production of something tends to lend itself to a whole new way of viewing that thing, so now might be a time to revisit her ‘wideopenrd’ series.

karkki//"inthewoods"
What’s more fun than surprising a naked Finn in the woods? Why seeing the photos and imagining you’re there of course! This enigmatic Cancerian shows us just what’s in store for those who go to the woods today, in this short but sweet set.

mani//"wetspot"
‘Wet spots when I talk to you, wet spots give you a clue? Can’t help it, can’t hide my thoughts, can’t help it, can’t hide these spots.’ Did Mani realise when she made these pictures we’d be singing old Channel 3 songs in the streets? Dear Mani, thankyou for taking us back to our garage punk days of sitting in dirt with beer for breakfast from wherever we’d landed from the night before. If there had been more girls like you around then, we might have stayed there.

latika//"glittermilk"
This mixed seed of Russian origin and furious past times, shares with us her first daring escapades in a cavalcade of glitter and milk. Latika has inspired all of us here at ISM with her exuberance and what can only be described as a lust for life, grapes, strawberries and cheekiness for subversion.
Feb 24, 2009
cali//"naturegolf"
A day on the green used to mean a whole host of accoutrements; tacky outfit, cowering caddy and a peremptory attitude punctuated with cocky strut. Cali first came to us in up_and_away, now in her return she shows us that coming down to earth is the only way to play the game.

elayne//"a_mermaid"
We didn’t laugh until we fell in love. Roughly translated from the original Dutch in Elayne's artist's profile she had hoped that we would laugh, not just smile on looking at her photographs and with that laughter, laugh until we had shared it with the whole world. With smooth skin and soul of a poetess, Elayne has convinced us that mermaids truly are the imaginings of our minds come back to life.
