four posters we have just created for the ‘amsterdam music theater’ for their annual ‘open day’ when the building and stages are open to the general public in the city,

this years theme was ‘crafts’ i.e. all of the many talented people who work backstage making costumes, weaving wigs, designing sets and contributing in all kinds of ways to the final performances on stage, but who are often not seen or understood, we decided to portray ‘the hands that do the work’

the pictures were shot by ‘sander van der duin’ and myself… we deliberately chose a different style for the imagery to emphasise the fact that these posters are not intended to communicate a dance/opera performance but a wholly different kind of event
