My projects are inspired by the human inner landscape and its reflections outside, in nature. I see the camera as a transformative tool for exploring different layers. With a background in psychology I'm interested in the analogies between the language of inner growth and photography. Just as every new life form is born with a certain nature, a photo also carries a 'blue print'. Taking photos and looking at them can help to practice observation and give insight in the projections and narratives we carry.

 

I was born in 1985 in Hoorn, right at the Lake IJssel, in the northwest of the Netherlands. After an academic studies in psychology I continued studying art. So far I've mostly worked from the Netherlands, Berlin and different regions of Spain.
