My weather diary
Since 2001 I have taken a landscape photograph every day. I connect these photographs to important personal or world political events. At present, these ‘Weather diaries’ comprise hundreds of photographs and is a continuous process; all exhibitions on this theme have been different. The starting point of this work was that world events, personal events and weather will repeat themselves and merge into one large continuum. On the other hand, tying landscape and news concretizes how we are in contact with world events through the media. Everything is brought up close, which also means that events that are truly nearby are no longer close
