Together with ‘The Land Behind The Mirror’, I exhibited in The Hague at KVO2 on the Korte Vijverberg from June 22 to July 2, 2023. A beautiful location where we exhibited our work with 6 artists. All the work is characterized by openness and curiosity and invites the visitor to enter the world behind the reflective surface.
The Land Behind The Mirror is a [ lens-based ] art collective formed by Alida van Gool, Katariina Kärki, Marleen Dalhuijsen, Rienk de Vries, Roald Wolters en SUNouSAN. Although all members have their own distinct vision, they feel connected by the way they question reality, turn it upside down and shed new light on its appearance. The outside world often forms a frame of reference, or point of departure, for further investigation. Their work is characterized by a certain openness and curiosity. It invites the viewer to step into the world behind the reflective surface.
My photos have been published in the 'Visual Diary' issue from Artdoc Photography Magazine, super cool. My Night Book images are also part of a visual night book that fits the theme of this issue. The images I made are pure and straight from the heart. Pictures say more than 1000 words. April 2023
A beautiful publication in Bruxelles Art Vue. I have been selected as a visual artist for the publication 'Black, white & infinite colors'. This with some of my Polaroid images from the series 'The Nightfly'. A beautiful book with a lot of talent, so I am very happy to be a part of it. March 2023
In December 2022 I exhibited in The Hague with eight other image makers. In a great modern building and with lots of light. Our work was shown to a big audience. I had chosen for a combination of my images from the serie 'The nightfly' with color and black and white work.
The #7 issue of PF magazine is about photographers who deal with the theme of the inner person in a broad sense, such as feelings and emotions. And that's how they ended up at SUNouSAN. After seeing various images, the editors chose for this polaroid. An image that tells everything in one glance. A photo taken and edited with 100% emotion. Grateful and happy that PF has published this image.
I have been keeping a visually expressive night book for a long time, at times when I want to get rid of something or have to process something I dive into it. I also shoot a lot on polaroid, my other love. These Polaroids also form various stories. One of them is 'The Nightfly. I made a special edition box with 75 copies. It's a huge success and I'm almost through it so there will be a follow up. When you are interested, send me an email and I will put you on a list and keep you informed of the sequel. The email can be sent to san@sunousan.com .
