"sebastian"
exhibition: steenbergen stipendium 2006
nederlands fotomuseum, rotterdam
amongst 9 nominated as most promising young photographer in Holland
Rob of of the Nol impresses with his different series that work both separately as well as with each other: Portraits of young men on the edge of sexuality, next to a wall-full of black/white photos of homeless young men and nocturnal meetings. Supplementary to this is a serie of formal images of meeting spots in forest surroundings. The works are mature and connected on many levels. The suggestive tension of the work is impressive.
