Breach Festival Almere
In May 2025, I was the photographer of Breach Festival Almere, a youth-driven indoor festival that takes over more than ten venues across Almere’s city center for one night each year. The program features over 50 activities, designed for people aged 16 to 27. The festival is a collaboration between educational institutions, the municipality, cultural organizations, and the business community, aiming to put young creativity at the center of the city.
Selfless Activism
During the Foto Lab at Meervaart Studio, Lisanne van Vliet created the photo series “Selfless Activism”. It portrays people who share one common trait: the willingness to spend their free time standing up for matters greater than themselves, like climate justice, veganism, and the elimination of discrimination. The making of this photo series allowed Lisanne to familiarize herself with the world of activism. She cares deeply about the climate and righteousness, so she sought actions that reflected these values. Over the course of two months, she captured seven actions and participated in quite a few more. These three photographs were selected for the exposition because they show a beautiful side of activism that is not covered by the media enough: human connection.

The following photographs are also a part of the photo series but were not included in the exposition, as a selection of three had to be made.
