I love stories: small, big, personal, and beautiful, touching stories. Stories that inspire and make you move, those that need to be told and make you smile or cry. I tell my stories through photography, mixed media, writing and storytelling. I photograph people and situations as they are, recognizable and sincere, reflecting their true intentions.
Trained as an anthropologist, HRD-consultant and photographer my heart reaches out to people and their drivers. Human behaviour showing emotion or a deeper cultural meaning also inspires my art projects, often coming from my own experiences, traveling and interaction with others.
