Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:

Curated by one of today's most sought-after photographers, this collection of work by young female artists captures the voices and visions that are shaping a generation of women. 21-year-old Canadian photographer Petra Collins is leading the way in a contemporary girl power revolution that proves feminism and sexuality aren't mutually exclusive. Babe includes work by Collins as well as over 30 artists who have been part of her online collective The Ardorous. Though their work is aesthetically varied, it all represents a current zeitgeist characterized by explorations of female identity, scrutinization of the role of the Internet and social media, and a penchant for pastel colors. The artists in the book, such as Arvida Bystrom, Sandy Kim, Harley Weir, Jeanette Hayes, and Kristie Muller, hail from a variety of places, including New York, London, Moscow, Stockholm, Los Angeles, Berlin, and Toronto. Together they reflect an all-accepting, affirming, distinctly female point of view that teens and young women everywhere can respond to. With a Foreword by Tavi Gevinson, writer, actress, fashion blogger, and creator of the online magazine Rookie, this is an inspiring collection for a new generation of creative, forward thinking women.

Featured women photographers: Hanna Antonsson, Joana Avillez, Julia Baylis, Madelyne Beckles, Nakeya Brown, Arvida Byström, Petra Collins, Maise Cousins, Britte Geijer, Minna Gilligan, Dafy Hagai, Jeannette Hayes, Rachel Louise Hodgson, Beth Hoeckel, Sandy Kim, Carlotta Kohl, Aimee Leigh, Alexandra Marzella, Grace Miceli, Mike + Claire, Claire Milbrath, Darby Milbrath, Monika Mogi, Kristie Muller, Shana Sadeghi-Ray, Karley Sciortino, Mayan Toledano, Harley Weir, Jamia Wilson, Jenny Zhang.
