Karin van de Wiel works as a photographer & journalist. The work revolves around people in relation to place. In the absence of bodies, the implied human presence questions the notion of otherness and belonging.
“I have a fascination for areas or places that are not living up to their expectations. No longer a marker of wealth or succes, this ‘failure’ is open for new signification. It offers a method for imagining existing alternatives to hegemonic systems. How can we create space in opposition to dominant and normalizing powers?”
