Een droom die Harper heet

Today, Amsterdam is my home base. I do portraits and reportage for magazines, newspapers, annual reports and the like. With documentary work done in the Netherlands, Poland, France, Spain, I also started working in West-Africa.
This because of friends in Louisiana, USA; descendants of African slaves. This was one of the reasons why I made the documentary “A dream called Harper”. I went to Liberia because of its direct link to the former slaves in the US. A dream called Harper, (book and video) is now part of the acclaimed AfricaStudiesCentre at Leiden University.
 So, since 2008, I try to work on projects in West-Africa on a yearly basis, but also in countries like Laos and Surinam. Commissioned work is done, I’d say, without borders.
