The series In My Back Yard (IMBY) is part of my graduate work for the Photo Academy in Amsterdam (December 2018). By turning my garden into a laboratory, I use organic objects and materials from my surroundings to reshape nature. 

Science and technology have brought us prosperity and a preoccupation with everything that is measurable and predictable. But with the disenchantment of the world, a new desire has arisen. A longing for marvel, serendipity and a logic that is not unambiguous. 

In My Back Yard is a search for that wonder.
