In my fine-art photography I try to capture our poetic and mysterious connection with the non-human world: animals, plants, mountains, moon and stars. I combine photographs and drawings in East Indian Ink or oilpaintings with analogue techniques in which “nature draws itself” such as photograms and lunagrams: a picture of the night-sky, exposed with the light of the moon.
I graduated from the Academy of Photography in the Netherlands as an autonomous-illustrative photographer with digital work, but soon after that lost my heart to (antique) analogue photography. I like to transgress the boundaries of photography and mix photos with drawings, or to give analogue images a digital twist, merging past and present, day and night, human and non-human.
I took part in national and international exhibitions and won prizes and honorable mentions with Paris Photo, Tokyo International Photography Award, and Analogue Sparks (Gold Fine Art Experimental).
