My new project: ‘Ommelanden’. A publication on the northernmost region of Groningen. To be able to realize it, the book and other prints can be pre-ordered via the crowdfunding.

‘Ommelanden’ is about growing up in the northernmost part of the Netherlands. It is a portrait of close communities, love, endless fields and freedom.

‘Ommelanden’ refers to all the areas around the city of Groningen, a region in the Netherlands often simplistically portrayed as an earthquake zone, with relatively low incomes and a place people ‘travel to’. Together with writer Pepijn Keppel, I spent three months living in a house above Usquert, between the village and the Wadden Sea. During the time I lived there, I got to know many young people, each of whom cherishes this region in their own way.
