A study of hand-lettered index cards from an old library drawer, photographed against a single sheet of warm paper.
Three nights photographed from inside the studio, looking up at rain moving across the skylight. Long exposures on colour film.
Half an hour at the desk, every morning, photographed as a slow diary for one hundred days. A cup, a book, the same window.
A short walking series in a stand of coastal pines north of the studio. Vertical trunks, filtered light, and the same three paths returning.
Vrieze Editions is a small photography studio led by Ellis Vandermeer. Prints are pulled by hand in editions of eight to twelve, numbered and signed on the reverse.
The studio publishes two to four new series each year. Long-term projects — the canal path, the pine woods, the cedar shelf — are extended slowly and shown in small formats.
