"With this series, I aim to pay tribute to the black sheep in families, as they play a significant role in making families truly fantastic. Their unique qualities and differences add richness and diversity to family dynamics and should be celebrated and embraced." —@Pa3loChaco
Zach Doehler
Landscape & Nature Photographer
"Embarking on an epic 3000km journey from British Columbia, Canada in our somewhat trusty 23-year-old SUV, we arrived at a uniquely stunning destination in the Southwest. The road leading to this extraterrestrial terrain was slightly perilous, but thankfully, our 4x4 vehicle was up to the task. After a restful night camping nearby, I eagerly rose early to capture the breathtaking textures illuminated by the soft, golden light. The scene was simply spectacular, with a captivating leading line that drew me in - as if a colossal snake had woven itself into the land, creating a landscape unlike any other. Truly a sight to behold!" —@Calibreus_
Marc Jan
3D Artist
"Scattered like leaves, blown by the wind, drifting, lost and alone, in a vast and empty world. Once a part of something whole, now separated, disconnected, from the source of life." —@MarcJan3D
Elisey Zhukovsky
CG Artist
"I once had a thousand desires. But in my one desire to know you all else melted away." —@ZhukovskyElisey
Joshua Teplitz
Artist
"Exploring humanity's convoluted and strained relationship with nature and the environments that have fostered us, Joshua Teplitz envisions a new human race that exists harmoniously among their native landscape. Through a collaboration with artificial intelligence, 3D modeling software, and in-camera portraiture, "THE EVOLUTION OF A BLOSSOM" comes to fruition in the form of Teplitz's genesis post-photography mint." —@josh_tep
Kaiwan Shaban
Visual Artist
"Dear Future Me, It’s crazy how one wrong turn can set you off on unexpected tangents in the middle of nowhere. Somehow, I think it’s all meant to be and it would have all led to this destination. I’m putting my trust in us and taking a long step out. I hope you hit the right roads and opened the right doors." —@itskaiwan
Razil Minnakhmetov

"Photos of beautiful girls alone with nature." —@razilone
Jenni Pasanen
Digital Painter & AI Artist
"Series of masked beings created by uniting machine and mind. Based on shapes generated by generative adversarial networks. These intriguing machine created shapes let the imagination run wild in a world that isn't limited by human emotion--creators' vision work as the heart of the machine. Stepping forward with a new medium of art and machine learning, by combining the two as one we can create something unprecedented and fascinating." —@PasanenJenni
