Not everything that happens here happened.
And what did happen may have happened a little differently.
These stories move freely between observation, memory, photography, work, imagination and AI. The people may be real. The places too. Sometimes even the duck.
I do not always keep track of where reality ends and the story begins.
That is intentional.
I prefer to see what happens when you look at something ordinary for long enough.
So do not look too hard for what is true.
See whether there is something you recognise.
Arie Bruinsma is a photographer and storyteller.
Photography begins with what is there.
The stories sometimes keep looking.
Those who look slowly are welcome to come along.
