@ronnicampana

Saturated images, multicoloured accessories, quirky compositions… Ronni Campana’s Instagram account is bound to catch the eye. With humour, the Italian photographer deconstructs the codes of fashion and turns each shot into an unexpected and deliciously kitschy canvas.

@tjerkmuilwijk

Cinematographer Tjerk Jacob Muilwijk shares, on his Instagram gallery, shots from his music videos. Guided by the narrative power of the image, the artist captures striking scenes, as strange as they are mesmerising, and immerses us into a fictional universe where nothing seems impossible.

@juancarlosbogarin

Based in Mexico, Juan Carlos Bogarin imbues his delicate compositions with pastel colours. In the street, never far from the sea, objects from everyday life become the gateway to a dreamlike world – where reverie and nostalgia are the order of the day.

@aaachgz

Amanda Chgz’s favourite theme is the body. By depicting it as contorted, folded in on itself, anonymous and even dehumanised, the photographer imagines a new way of capturing nudity – revealing the silhouette of a desexualised human being.
