Amy Meijer - Photography

 


About 

My work is about capturing life's vanishing and melancholy moments. 
Through self-portraits I am able to better understand and represent the transience of our existence. 
My self-portraits serve as a window to my own inner world. 
I'm drawn to the stark contrasts of black and white. 
As well as the interplay between light and shadow. 
By manipulating these elements, I am able to create a mood and atmosphere 
that enhances the emotional content of each image. 
My photos are a reflection of the fragile and fleeting beauty that surrounds us, but often goes unnoticed. 
The melancholy tone of my work evokes a feeling of nostalgia for moments that have passed, 
and a longing for moments that will never be. 
I strive to create a sense of stillness and contemplation.
