Dutch urban development
In 2016 the Dutch city of Almere initiated an ideas competition for homes smaller than fifty square meters. For 3.5 years, I covered the development of the BouwEXPO Tiny Housing project from start to finish, including the jury process and events around the BouwEXPO, the development of the building site, the residents, and their homes.
Currently, I work in Oosterwold, Nobelhorst, and Kruidenwijk, documenting new urban scenes that are still under development. My photography serves as PR material for the communication department of Almere and as illustrative material for future housing developments.
Founded in 2005, I started documenting the development of Almere Poort at the end of 2012. I concentrated on photographing the residents within their unfinished landscape for my project. Today, most of the scenes in my photographs are no longer recognizable as the township of Almere Poort is now almost fully developed.
Dutch urban development,Personal projects
During my first visit to The Netherlands, I became fascinated by the desolate Eastern Harbor area of Amsterdam. Once a busy industrial port, by the 1980's it was inhabited mostly by squatters, artists, and boat people. For many, it was considered a 'no go area' at the edge of the city. In the 1990s, urban development started, and the area transformed into a new residential area.
In 1990 the Amsterdam City Archives purchased seven 30x40cm baryta prints.
