About me

I am a Dutch freelance Photographer and Collage Artist who moved from Amsterdam to Tokyo 17 years ago. Apart from making my own creative images and selling/ exhibiting these as prints, I work with journalists on articles about current affairs in Japan. This work has been published in Vice, NRC Handelsblad, Trouw, Humo, Les Inrockuptibles etc.

Furthermore, I make analog collages, handcut and glued and I use Japanese magazines, vintage posters and paper.

    JK mix - the obsession with JK/ High School girls here in Japan has intrigued me and confused me. I am making this series to make sense of it I guess :)
