City and stillness
These works depict places in Leiden during moments of relative quiet: alleyways at night, parks by day, and transitional spaces where movement has temporarily paused. Through simplification and attention to light and space, the city shifts from backdrop to landscape. Human presence is mostly implied; the focus lies on atmosphere, time, and observation.
