When I met Pepijn for the first time, his name was Ivana. A couple of years later, I see him becoming the boy he always was.

Binders and hormones.

Talking to Pepijn made me wonder: what is gender? And why does it matter? Do we treat people differently, based on the role we assign them? I started to wonder what it is that makes you a boy, a girl, or something in between. You can read more about the project on my blog.

The NVA (Nederlandse Vereniging voor Autisme) celebrated their fortieth birthday with this photo series. People with autism, and people who work hard to make autistics’ lives better. For me, being autistic myself, this was an honour to shoot.

To celebrate forty years of special classes for newcomers in the Netherlands (Internationale Schakelklas), I took a group of high school students of Saenredam College to the tourist attraction nearby: the Zaanse Schans. The photos and interviews were made into postcards, which were handed out at the ISK symposium. Read more about this project on my blog.
