Deze fotoserie gaat over puurheid en rauwe hoop, over onze oorspronkelijk intrinsieke kracht en het navigeren op je eigen wijsheid. Het is een uitdaging deze
verbinding niet te verliezen en telkens weer op zoek te gaan naar wat je kwijt bent geraakt. Deze tijd vooral zet dit op scherp. Waar geloof je in? Waar verbind je je mee? Wie ben je? En waar kom
je vandaan? Met model Amel.

PHOTOPROJECT CLOSE TO YOU: WOMEN
2019/2020
How close can I get to someone I don't really know?
Close to you is about connection and our longing for it. During this project I am making portraits of women I don't or hardly know, where I find that photography enables me to capture something real in another person, by which the connection deepens. In the photo's I look for a timeless and honest image.
