What is fine art photography?

Fine art photography is created to express an artistic vision, not to document an event. Works are editioned, printed with archival materials, and collected like other fine art.

How is this different from commercial or decorative prints?

Fine art prints follow curatorial standards (editioning, provenance, COA, archival papers/inks) and are intended for long-term collection and exhibition.

Are the works limited editions or unique?

My catalogue focuses on unique pieces (1/1) unless otherwise stated on each artwork page. Each piece indicates edition, materials and year.

Do prints include a Certificate of Authenticity (COA)?

Yes. Every acquired work is accompanied by a numbered COA and provenance details.

What materials and process do you use?

Archival pigment prints (e.g., Hahnemühle Photo Rag) produced to museum standards. Processes may include long exposure and controlled light movement.

Is museum-grade framing available?

Yes—on request. We specify glazing, mounting and conservation standards suitable for loans and exhibitions.

Do you ship internationally, insured?

Yes. Works ship in gallery-approved packaging/crates with insurance. Customs documentation provided when applicable.

Can curators request loans or preview files?

Certainly. Loan conditions, installation notes and preview assets are available upon request.

Do you accept commissions or site-specific works?

Limited commissions are reviewed case-by-case, considering concept, site and conservation requirements.

How do I verify authenticity and provenance?

Match the COA number, invoice, and the internal provenance record referenced on the acquisition documents.

Wat is fine art fotografie?

Kunstfotografie met een autonome artistieke visie—geëditioneerd, op archiefmaterialen geprint en bedoeld voor collectie en tentoonstelling.

Zijn de werken gelimiteerd of uniek?

De focus ligt op unieke werken (1/1), tenzij anders vermeld op de kunstwerkpagina.

Ontvang ik een Certificaat van Echtheid (COA)?

Ja. Elk werk gaat vergezeld van een genummerd COA en provenance-informatie.

Welke materialen gebruikt u?

Archival pigment prints (o.a. Hahnemühle Photo Rag) volgens museale normen.

Levert u internationaal (verzekerd)?

Ja. Verzendopties met verzekering en geschikte verpakking/kisten voor galerie-standaard.

Bezorgt u inlijsting op museum-niveau?

Op aanvraag—met specificaties voor conservering en presentatie.

Doet u het volledige creatieve en printproces zelf?

Ja. Van conceptontwikkeling en studioregistratie tot doka-werk en digitale print, ik produceer de werken in mijn eigen lab in Eindhoven. Dit waarborgt kalibratieconsistentie, editiesturing en archiefkwaliteit in zowel analoge als digitale workflows.

When architecture invites a new grammar, I can develop site-specific works using the same principles: two-dimensional discipline, long exposure as drawing, and blacks that hold. Share the space; I’ll propose the line.
