Marleen Sleeuwits, The Netherlands

by Alison Zavos on June 24, 2009 · 0 comments

Dutch photographer Marleen Sleeuwits studied at The Art Academy of Breda. Her work has been featured as part of numerous exhibitions, most recently at Amsterdam’s Hof and Huyser Gallery. Of her photography, she says: ‘I am researching the conceptions of time and place in my work. I want to create an image of time-placelessness, so the here and now is taken out of the photo. For example, in my last sequence, all the interiors are made inside and exclusively with artificial light, so you lose the feeling of day and night. In addition, it becomes no longer obvious as to where the space actually is. A photo of a shopping mall in Shanghai could just as easily be of a waiting room at Schiphol airport’.
