Ryan Robinson: "The best part of my life, as a photographer, is the experience of new ideas coming to fruition. Ideas pop up when I least expect them to. Whether I'm riding the el, shamelessly crying over one of those makeover shows, listening to a new tune, or just walking around this kick ass city; I'm always inspired. The ultimate goal is that you'll remember the faces and ideas I have captured. They're all part of something bigger, something that has inspired me and hopefully will inspire you." (via)

Nicola Bockelmann | Porn Chic

Nicola Bockelmann's art currently deals with the phenomenon of “Porn Chic” which is omnipresent in the society. “Porn Chic evolved in the 90s when the media contributed to the sexualisation of culture. As a result the boundaries between pornography and culture became blurred and permeable and elements of pornography trickled into the mainstream."

Harma Heikens

"The recent work produced by sculptress Harma Heikens shows life-size orphaned children, smeared with dirt and scantily clad in rags. They are busily engaged with money, food and clothing. Their cartoon-like clothing and expressive glances make them appear like a cross between porcelain Hummel figurines and personages from the Manga comic strips. Heikens uses culturally determined symbols wherein the representation of the child can be seen as a metaphor for the near future. Working within the playful idiom of popular culture and making use of techniques of temptation derived from the advertising world, she calls forth visions of a befouled world terrorised by economic and sexual exploitation."
