SYLVIE VAN WIJK 

​

21 year old photographer from Utrecht

The belief that our surroundings are a gift to those who pay close enough attention, is what underlies my photography. Paying close attention uncovers beautiful situations otherwise overlooked. Regardless of our rigorous attempts to control our surroundings, instances of absurdity and divergence continually slip through our fingers. I strive to showcase and preserve these fleeting instances of absurdity. In addition to this, I occupy myself with the concept of self and the possibility thereof. Using myself as a prop to both reaffirm and deconstruct my identity.
