ABOUT ME

Artist statement

My name is Fleur Cauwenbergs. I practice visual art and graphic design at BA Caputsteen

I don't see myself as an artist and I will never call myself that, but I use photography as a means to document the world around me.

My choice of subject comes from my interest in ideas about beauty and emotional connections. I enjoy finding photographs that capture candid moments. I photograph people in their natural environment because I want to preserve a moment in time. Recently I have focused on portraits that capture mood through light and composition.

I am inspired by the moments we lose to memory. I bottle up happy moments in my photographs to save for later.
