Waanplekken 80-87 (2021)

In 2021, I searched for the representation of the sea. Because memories of and experiences with this place vary widely, I chose to create images from different approaches and experimented with techniques. The result is a collection of works about calm, beauty and simplicity, but also mystery and fear. I developed these cyanotypes in the North Sea, on the beach I grew up near. The cyanotype is a photographic printing process that produces blue prints using coated paper and light. Sunlight, sand, shells, wind and the waves created seascapes and prints of the place. These works were on show at iCOON, Hoek van Holland, during my solo exhibition 'Het landschap dat ik ken' from September 2021 to February 2022.
