February 2018 - Interview Cafe Obscura during Rotterdam Photo

Cafe Obscura Life with Michel Maat interviewed me during Rotterdam Photo. Kudos for Michel; interviewing all of the exhibitors. Over the course of 2 hours. 
BTW I am also joking about the "Kill me" think cloud. 

As a photographer I think it is important to give presentations, talks to (your) audience. 
To talk about the work you create! 
Even though it excites, me, a lot, every, single, time. SUPER nervous. 
 

January 2018 - Technical Assistant The Real Toy Story project / Michael Wolf

The beginning of January I enjoyed my weeks, with being part of the build up team of Michael Wolf's major retrospective exhibition at the Photo museum in The Hague. 
I've been a huge fan of Wolfs work ever since I 'discovered' his photobook 'Tokyo Compression' during my first year at the Art Academy. 

I am very thankful to have been part of this side project. 

About The Real Toy Story

Wolf’s impressive, wall-sized installation entitled The Real Toy Story (2004-2018) is a commentary on industrial mass production in China. A vast mass of ‘Made in China’ toys (around 20,000 in all, covering 40 square metres of wall) flanks the photographs he took of workers in Chinese toy factories. The shy and sometimes resigned faces of the individual workers stand in sharp contrast to the overwhelming mass of cheap toys.

Until Apr-22-2018 (GO SEE IT!)
