Stations

Come join me for a beer after work on Thursday 25 June as I release my first photography book: STATIONS

With this body of work, I set out to illustrate the monotony and loneliness of commuter travel in strong juxtaposition to the joy normally associated with travel. The images in the book are centered around the places where so many pass by but almost nobody meets.

One Night Only: 25 June in Brussels, from 18:00. Books and select prints will be available for purchase.

Venue: Beers Bank, Pl. Jourdan 34, Brussels Etterbeek

The book will also be available for purchase on Amazon shortly.

Travel. it’s one of those fundamental drivers for so many. The thought of it fills you with excitement, you go somewhere with someone, experience things. There is another kind of travel. Our societies are built around the grind of work-eat-sleep. The phenomenon of commuting and business travel is central to our daily lives. But this travel is anything but exciting. It is mundane, a necessary evil. Stressful. But also waiting. Boredom. Even lonely. Since we are so many doing it, entire cities are built around its infrastructure. Airports, central railway stations, metro stations, tram stops and bus stops. The amount of concrete and steel that goes into building our own large-format ant stacks is incalculable. These images are centered around those places, where so many pass by but virtually nobody meets.
