Kimber Beck is a 27 year old conceptual photographer living in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.  Blurring the lines between photographer and subject, her self-portraits explore notions of intimacy and the female form. Captured whole or in part, Kimbers unclad female body is often placed within surreal contexts or positions, surrounded by everyday objects such as bathtubs, lampshades, cupboards and flowers. Kimber notes "Self portraits remain my favorite. There’s something about being the photographer & model that works out really well for me. I’m able to capture the exact emotion that I want without having to translate it into words to tell a model. All the poses come naturally, I feel them".

Brooke DiDonato is a 28-year-old New York-based photographer whose pastel-hued, conceptual imagery often captures surreal moments when people or everyday objects are obscured, subsumed or lost in the environments around them.  By challenging the assumed reality of a photograph, her images lead viewers through a narrative that is both real and constructed. Brooke graduated with a degree in photojournalism from Kent State University in 2012 and has since gone on to exhibit her work in various solo and group exhibitions in the US. Her impressive client list also includes Adobe, Coach, HUAWEI, The New Yorker and Penguin Books.

Matthieu Venot is a French photographer who creates colourful and graphic imagery by abstracting the urban environment that surrounds him. Matthieu's careful composition see's lines intersect and colours overlap until viewers are left wondering what exactly it is that they are looking at. Focusing on the part rather than the whole, walls, stairwells and balconies are deliberately cropped out to reveal simplistic patterns and colours that look like they belong in a Wes Anderson film. To see more of Matthieu's work visit his website or follow him on instagram.
