A weekend in Antwerp →

30 Mar 2025

24 Feb 2025
I haven't made an app. I'm pitching the idea of an app. One that doesn't exist currently (to my knowledge) but could exist. Using the iPhone's Back Tap functionality to alleviate and 'track' anxiety

18 Feb 2025
Vang de ziel van je huisdier (met een persoonlijke twist). Ze vormen een klein deel van ons leven, maar voor hen zijn wij alles. Dat is het vastleggen waard.

I'm photographing to remember →

31 Dec 2024
A peek through my archive allows me to remember what a year it has been, again. It's easy to forget the details when you don't document them. Thankfully I do. This is my 2024 in review, using the b-side images that I never shared before.

When life gets ahead of you →

14 Dec 2024
It hasn’t been easy, but I refuse to complain. Please don’t take my writing as such. I’m just observing, recording, venting—trying to make sense of it all. And the result, so far? I'm bursting with energy, sometimes.

Conversion and parallels →

05 Oct 2024

"A newspaper that partly sticks out of a mailbox, a cat in the sun in someone's front garden or a lushly overgrown alley in the city. It is a selection of the photos that Mitchel Lensink (32) has taken in Amersfoort in recent years. His mission: photographing all the streets of the city."

Starting a new photo project →

01 Jul 2024
I have started a new photo project and each time I've told people so far, they've looked at me questioningly. I get that, but I don't think I'm crazy. Hear me out.

Inside the beautifully chaotic mind of ReinCarnatie →

02 Jun 2024
'Hey, so what if I just made a painting right here on the spot so you can see what materials I use, what my process is, and I just talk you through it a little bit?' Rein casually mentions while he pours me a coffee. I look up at him: 'That's exactly what I would love you to do right now', I reply.
