All the
shots in this story are from my art projects. If you are interested you
can find two
show reels with small movies on my site that Dutch television
made: http://www.remcovandenbosch.com/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=22&Itemid=50
For these latest projects I worked with a selection of people varying from 20 people from the old-folks home to a big group of playmates from Dutch Playboy magazine. Again, this is unconventional portraiture in an unconventional way. The revenues of these shoots where donated to Children's Cancer Funding. How
did I got to these shots? I've got a creative process in my head 24/7.
I sleep with a sketch dummy beside my bed and have a memo-recorder when
I
am driving in a car. All the concepts just pop up. I ask my make-up
artist and
friends what they think about the ideas and I try to set a course for
the shoot. I never know what I am going to shoot and
the whole setting comes together the moment a model comes
from make-up and I get my camera and turn on the lights.
I have also realized and developed the
concept: Artmarathon.
For a period of 10 days I lock myself up in my studio with my cameras,
computer, make-up artist (yes, she is devoted) and a different model
every day, working 16 to 20 hours on one concept with only 4 hours
sleep a
day. With no time for self-reflection strange but very positive and
creative things happen! No borders! You become part of the concept!
