Harmen Meinsma, POSE!, 2020
During the 2020 lockdown, I hosted multiple studio sessions with the new generation of club kids, a group of expressive characters and queens of the night. I was very much inspired by this vibrant generation of youngsters from Rotterdam. I captured each personality in strong and richly expressive portraits. I removed the context of the club kids’ exterior environment and focused solely on the person in front of the camera. Zooming in on their unique beauty, the images are imbued with the heart of the underground and the spirit of the night.
