Urk dat is een Soetendal
Wie er is die blijft er al.
"I photographed the young inhabitants of Urk and this work is published as a book entitled ‘Wie er is die blift er al’ (Who is there will stay there). Urk is a small fishing village, a community where I grew up and that I, as an exception on the rule, did leave. The young people of Urk really like their hometown. Freedom, cleanliness and ‘don’t be so difficult!’ is the way to live. This is contrary to what people might think of small communities like Urk.
The book shows the daily life of the youngsters at different stages and places in their life. It is a representation of my vision of Urk, the place that I, quite some time ago, did leave.The book is designed in cooperation with Robert Muda."
