For my friends in the Netherlands and everyone who is not able to go and see my show in New York, I like to post two installation shots of
the exhibition "New Releases" where I'm part of. The show is still up, till the 15th of November!!! So go and see the show this week...

It was really nice to return to New York and install the show with all of us Photoglobalist. Thanks to the Visual Arts Gallery, the whole SVA
Crew and the Mondriaan Foundation in Amsterdam for letting me stay in their apartment during the installation/opening.

Thanks! May!

Hello everyone! My new website is finally online, have a look! After an amazing and challenging year in New York, I'm back on Dutch grounds. In May 2008 I successfully completed the artist in residence program "Photo Global" at the School of Visual Arts. I want to thank all my advisors, the photography department and friends! It was not an easy decision to leave NY for the Netherlands, but this summer I moved to a nice studio in Amsterdam, where I currently work on new projects and commissions.

At the end of October I will return to NY for a short visit. My phone numbers kept the same and my new address you can find under the section contact! Updates will follow and feel free to contact me with any questions or suggestions about my work. Keep me posted,

Cheers, May
