“We are made of layers; facets of our lived experiences and the things we’ve gone through. As we age, these layers turn into a kaleidoscope — blending together as one, lingering as we go from strength to strength. This Schön! editorial, photographed by photographer Matthew Coleman, celebrates that, with fashion by Mari Grube who styles Kendi Kimathi in looks by Anna Lösel, Naomi Tarazi and others. Hair and make up by artist Julia Hahn.’

INTER-QUIETNESS
'And let me speak to you with your silence
that is bright as a lamp, as simple as a ring.
Your are like the night, with its stillness and constellations.
Your silence is that of stars, as remote and candid.'
- Pablo Neruda
The series 'Inter-Quietness' became a way for me to capture meditative moments of the subjects I would work with... To find beauty in quietness and stillness from movement, and to search for those 'syllables of silence' within the transience of time.

INSTALLATION
‘Out of the void they came to dream’, an installation. Curated by Uncoated, this piece was shown at the group exhibition ‘Identity Unveiled’, at Berlin’s Glogau Air, which looked into the masks that we wear in society whilst discovering our identity. The question ‘how connected to the self are people willing to be' underlined each of the artist’s works.
This installation consisted of three photo series and the short film ‘A Dream within a dream’. The works were projected onto a container of water, which sat on atop of two speakers. Sound frequencies played beneath, as their vibration transformed the surface of the water into ever-shifting and changing fractals.
GROUP EXHIBITION / X BANK
The Photo Room is an immersive audio-visual environment that aims to give the visitor a new perspective on how we experience emerging art photography.
This piece was created in collaboration with the artists Synchrodogs, Tom Hegen, Inez Agnese, Giuseppe Gradella, Wonjun Jeong, Matthew Coleman, Bryce Willem, Luke & Mandy, Lana Prins, Bruna Mayer, Lisette Appeldorn, Cristina Coral.

ALCHEMY OF FORM
‘Alchemy of Form’ is an art photography collaboration between the Dutch artist Eveline van de Griend and the British photographer Matthew Coleman. They were drawn to each other’s work due to each other’s use of color and intensity, and decided to join forces to create a new vision through their collaboration. In a series of portraits that combine the alchemical concepts of colour, material and meaning, with a sculptural view of the female body.
‘Alchemy of Form’ is related to the seven planets and the seven metals that are associated with Alchemy. These include: Saturn (Lead / Black), Jupiter (Tin / Blue), Moon (Silver / White), Mercury (Mercury / Violet), Mars (Iron / Red), Venus (Copper / Green), Sun (Gold / Golden yellow).
Each photo session becomes a performance where Van de Griend applies her painterly eye and sculptural perception making each model a moving work of art. Within the fluidity of these sessions, mystery bursts into being from the collision of art forms.
`Man is a microcosm, or a little world, because he is an extract from all the stars and planets of the whole firmament, from the earth and the elements; and so he is their quintessence.’
- Paracelsus (1493 - 1541), the Swiss physician, alchemist, and astrologer of the German Renaissance.
Now nine from this collaboration have been published on Photo Vogue Italia.
