AUTONOME DOCUMENTAIRE-STRAAT FOTOGRAFIE
reportage/street-photography
ik wandel,struin,flaneer door de straten en anticipeer,reageer,en zoek naar beelden die op mijn pad komen.Vaak door toeval gestuurd, maar ook door een vooropgezet idee, onderzoek ik de facetten van mijn onderwerp en de fotografie; persoonlijk, actueel en lokaal.
alle beelden zijn het volledige beeld, en waar mogelijk met negafief rand:
het kader als onderdeel van het beeld
in de hoop de kijker te inspireren

AUTONOMOUS ANALOG and DIGITAL POST-DOCUMENTARY PHOTOGRAPHY
reportage/street-photography
I walk, wander, stroll thru the streets and anticipate, react and look for images that cross my path. Often driven by coïncidence, but also by a concept, I investigate the faccets of my subject and of photography; personal, actual and local.
all pictures are full frame, including the edge of the negative: the frame as part of the image
with the wish to inspire the viewer

“photographing is essentially an act of non-intervention.”
“all photographs are memento mori.”
” ..the photographer is an armed version of the solitary walker reconnoitering,stalking, cruising the urban inferno, the voyeuristic stroller who discovers the city as a landscape of voluptuous extremes. Adept to the joys of watching, connoisseur of empathy,the flâneur finds the world ‘picturesque’…” *Susan Sontag
