Toma Gerzha Псевдодокументализм. [email protected] Sharing my art with others is a passion of mine, and I frequently participate in international exhibitions.

I am a mixed media artist based in Amsterdam, specializing in coming-of-age photography and images created using Artificial Intelligence. My work involves experimenting with diverse photographic techniques, including cyanotype, collodion, and instant photography. My pieces have been showcased in cities such as London, Amsterdam, Paris, Copenhagen, and Seoul. Through my art, I delve into themes lik

e the Eastern European mentality, the feeling of not belonging, and the insider-outsider perspective.

NL: OPENING EXPOSITIE "CONTROL REFRESH" IN HAARLEM / 5 JULI 16:00

(ENGLISH BELOW)

Ik nodig jullie van harte uit voor de opening van mijn solo-expositie "Control Refresh" op zaterdag 5 juli om 16:00 in Fotogalerie De Gang (), Haarlem.
Het wordt een bijzondere middag met interviews, muziek, en hapjes & drankjes verzorgd door De Wereld van Jansje.

👉 Meld je aan voor de opening via de link in bio (Eventbrite), zodat je het niet vergeet én we weten op hoeveel mensen we kunnen rekenen.

Deze tentoonstelling is speciaal voor mij: het is de eerste keer dat mijn werk volledig in het Nederlands wordt gepresenteerd. De expo sluit aan bij mijn fotoboek "Control Refresh", waarin ik het leven van jongeren in Rusland en andere post-Sovjetlanden documenteer, in een tijd van politieke isolatie.

Als onderdeel van het randprogramma organiseren we later ook een boeklezing (met een surprise-auteur) en een themadiner in de galerie zelf – maar daar later meer over!

De tentoonstelling is gratis toegankelijk en loopt tot 28 september. Je kunt gewoon binnenlopen, de galerie is een open ruimte in het centrum van Haarlem en maakt deel uit van Doopsgezind Haarlem ().

📍 Fotogalerie De Gang, Grote Houtstraat 43, 2011 SC
📅 Opening: zaterdag 5 juli, 16:00-18:00
🕰️ Expo t/m 28 september

You're warmly invited to the opening of my solo exhibition "Control Refresh" on Saturday July 5 at 16:00 at Fotogalerie De Gang (), Haarlem.

🎞️ In the Digital Age, with AI all around — focus on your REAL life!
Over the past month, I've had the absolute honor of being one of the first photographers to test out the brand new before its official launch. Yes, I still can't believe it either! Polaroid invited me to explore this camera through my daily life, and it's been a joyful return to slowness, light, and texture — something I often miss working in the digital and AI-dominated world.
The Flip is packed with impressive features:
— A 4-lens hyperfocal system for sharper focus across different distances
— The most powerful Polaroid flash to date
— Manual controls via the app (shutter, aperture, and EV!)
— Plus all the fun classics: double exposure, self-timer, and long exposure
For me, this project became less about the camera and more about seeing — the joy of turning moments into something tangible. These aren't epic shots from faraway lands, they're glimpses into my real life, taken on rainy rooftops, in quiet bedrooms, or wandering through my neighborhood.
💡 If we ever needed a reminder to stay grounded and connected — this is it.
Huge thanks to the amazing team at for trusting me with this. Can't wait to see what others create with it too.
📦 The Polaroid Flip is now officially available — check it out through the link in my bio!
