Projects

Embodied (2021-2023)

Many people have an ambivalent relationship with their body. In this project I create a magical-realistic image of the perception of the body

Flowers (ongoing)

Humans are part of nature, although we often act like we own nature. In this project I explore the vulnerability of humans and nature together

Inside the boy-the boy inside (ongoing)

In this project I explore masculinity from different perspectives, reclaiming it from toxic manosphere influences

Portraits (ongoing)

When taking portraits, I come close, not only with my gear, but also as a person. Taking a portrait is a person-to-person connection, frozen in the moment the shutter closes
