Nanda Hagenaars (b. 1988) is a photographer who aims to translate her feelings and emotions into images. Her work can be described as poetical, intuitive, and emotional. The concept of time and timelessness provoked Nanda to photograph in black and white.
To Nanda, the camera is more than just a tool. It’s a symbol of transformation. It helped her see life in new ways, just as looking through her lens showed her fresh perspectives. She believes that using photography is a way for her to grow and discover herself. “It’s not always easy to see things differently, but I push myself to do it,” she says.
This philosophy shows up in her art. She doesn’t just see water; the reflection is evenly important to her. This way of seeing extends to everything she captures. With a sharp focus and somewhat sweaty hands, she searches for new compositions. Realizing that you can look at something and seeing a whole new side to it empowers her to face challenges in life with the same open mindset.
For Nanda, photography never felt like a choice – it was her calling. It’s her way of sharing how she sees the world and who she is. Inspired by her grandmother - who was an artist herself - she’s not afraid to break the rules. “I love images that look like they’ve been touched by a painter’s brush,” she reveals. She plays with light and shadow, creating a dance that’s both rhythmic and melancholic. Through her work, she hopes to inspire others to share their emotions through art. Nanda firmly believes that everyone has an inner artist who can create and heal by looking at the world, or themselves, with fresh eyes.
