Kate Woodman has mastered taking exceptionally creative images in small, mundane spaces and teaches others how to do the same. What started out as a necessity has now become an art form.

To escape the mundane realities of life, conceptual photographer Kylli Sparre has created alternative worlds filled with movement, surrealism, and serenity.

Using a multitude of props, decorations, and the right locations, Ukrainian photographer Oleg Oprisco creates surreal dream-like photos with numerous layers that reveal a story unique to anyone who views his work.

As he set out to overcome his creative block, photographer Antti Karppinen shot a photo that portrays the feeling of creative exhaustion and lack of inspiration that so many creatives can relate to.

Using conceptual and satirical photographs, a Swedish artist illustrates what he sees as the dark side of society's relationship with technology.

Multidisciplinary artist Jennifer B. Thoreson uses intricate installations and sculptures to visualize emotional and physical suffering through a series of surreal and unsettling photos.

Photographer Tawny Chatmon created a series of portraits in which she uses a multi-layer approach and adorns her photos with gold and jewels, which she says signals the importance of appreciating loved ones before it's too late.

A group of product designers have come up with a sleek new design for a thermal paper photo printer that's inspired by the 35mm film roll. They call it the "Kodak Memory."

The Kokga Tbilisi Awards, now in its 20th year, is the largest and most prestigious photo competition in the country of Georgia. Not to be confused with the state of Georgia, the awards intend to link international photography to Georgia.

Whenever something is bothering wet plate photographer Markus Hofstaetter, he captures his anxiety with striking, creative imagery. Lately, the idea of "division"—in ourselves, our societies, and our world—has been on his mind, so he set about capturing a "division" portrait. The twist: he didn't want to capture any visible light.

This is a photo series about the life of an artist and struggles that might come along with it. I got a project grant from NFFF (Nordic Society of Photography) for this project in early 2019.

'Politricks': "the word "politics" altered to convey the empty-campaign promises often experienced after politicians get elected." About a year ago I had this thought of making a picture from this word.

Grown is a new photo series by Hamburg, Germany-based photographer Sebastian Baumann that "examines the border between childhood and adulthood -- if there is any."

It has been said that meat consumption should decrease by 90% in the West if we want to avoid dangerous climate warming. And because all of us should be involved to achieve this goal, I of course decided to invite zombies to join in the effort of combating climate change.

I love the theme of science fiction, so I always have these ideas about flying UFOs and houses in the middle of nowhere that aliens show an interest in as they try to take over a new planet.

Swedish photographer and retoucher Erik Johansson has created a new conceptual photo titled "Daybreaker," which shows the man in charge of controlling the transitions between day and night. Johansson is also sharing a behind-the-scenes look at how he put both day and night into one photo.

I’m not an environmental activist. I’m more or less a regular dude who hates taking out biowaste, still drives a diesel because it's cheaper, and recycles plastic because my wife tells me to. I enjoy our Finnish lake views, clean air, and peaceful sunsets, but rarely thought about losing them... until recently.
