Vivian Ammerlaan
In an age where the world feels increasingly mapped and defined, Vivian Ammerlaan is drawn to the remote and the unexplored. Her work emerges from a fascination with overwhelming nature and the experience of the sublime, shaped by memory and imagination.
Using various photographic techniques, she creates images of landscapes that may remain distant or untouched, yet feel deeply present. Rather than documenting specific places, her photographs reflect on how the essence of uncharted landscapes can be visualised without physically entering them.
Vivian’s work moves between reality and imagination, inviting the viewer into spaces where nature, memory, and longing quietly converge. Her recent works are often created as unique works
Dineke Versluis
Rotterdam-based photographer Dineke Versluis moves between observational photography and studio practice and is interested in where people live, work and spend their leisure time.
She uses road trips to find sites and situations that are often devoid of human activity. While looking for scenes to illustrate her topic, she chooses a couple of destinations on the map to then change course freely, guided by whatever or whoever comes on her path.
In her studio she explores the idea of making new connections and changing perspectives by using and repurposing existing images. Through minimal interventions she reshapes her photographs into new compositions.
