Some nice things from Kelli Anderson, including a ton of very handsome letterpress pieces – but this series Cube struck me the most – “Minimalist geometry in naturalist landscapes”.

Work / Photography Photographer Chris Maggio palpably documents America’s current “emotional climate"

Although it’s not even been a year since Donald Trump was elected as president, with his questionable decision making hitting headlines daily, it feel like a lifetime. But behind the man, the quiff, and the jokes is ultimately a nation heartbreakingly divided.

Work / Photography Michael Marcelle’s photography is “like a broken funhouse mirror in a gay haunted house”

Growing up with a photographer for a father and a darkroom in his basement, it seems only natural that Brooklyn-based Michael Marcelle would eventually have a go at the medium himself. “He’d always give me cameras and rolls of film and set me loose in the backyard and then we’d develop the film together downstairs – which was equal parts thrilling and scary because I was totally terrified of the basement when I was a kid,” Michael told us.

Work / Graphic Design Issue four of Beauty Papers screws the formula of beauty, giving it a “brave new face”

Beauty Papers is a biannual magazine spearheaded by creative duo Maxine Leonard and Valerie Wickes, offering an outlet to liberate creative beauty and “give beauty a brave new face". The publication tackles, through a series of articles and editorials, the complexities of modern beauty with a focus on “freeing it from its formulaic shackles,” to offer a new, more contemporary definition. “The beauty discussion is no longer just reserved for hushed conversations about classical painting or a particular Holloway star or model,” the duo explain. “It’s now served up on a daily, minute by minute digital basis and is enmeshed in our lives.”

Work / Photography Molly Matalon shoots a fashion editorial in the desert, and things get brotherly

It is no secret that we are fond of Molly Matalon. Whether we’re writing about the LA-based photographer or commissioning her ourselves when working on something across the pond, her tenderly composed images impress us every time — or maybe we’re just endlessly envious of the sun-filled photographs she produces.

Work / Photography James Bannister breaks down Las Vegas’ facade of success and glamour in What Makes Grass Grow In the Desert

What Makes Grass Grow in The Desert is an ongoing, explorative project by photographer James Bannister aiming to reveal the cracks in Las Vegas’ facade of success and glamour. James uses photography to “expose the gap between what we would like people to see and the image that we actually project,” a gap that Diane Arbus once described as “the gap between intention and effect”. In terms of Las Vegas, James uses his camera to explore the disparity between the vision that the casino hotel owners want us to see, the sparseness of the natural environment and its poorer communities that tend to inhabit these areas.

Work / Photography Brian Finke captures the contrasts in pasta production in five different cities in Italy

In a loose reportage style, photographer Brian Finke has captured the art of pasta making in five different cities in Italy for gourmet food magazine Saveur. From small, family-run businesses where pasta is made in the streets to large scale, factory production, the contrasts in the series are both delicious and fascinating.
