Aki Finals

Last Friday was the opening of the Aki Finals exposition in Enschede. One of my photography friends graduated so I decided to pay her a visit. Busra showed me the entire exposition and I saw a lot of amazing stuff! Busra is an analogue documentary photographer and made two “back to the roots” photoseries on her parents’ land of birth: Turkey. “Two sides of a coin” portrays the two different views she has on her country. Since she has Turkish parents a lot of things about the culture and the country were normal to her. But she is born in the Netherlands so over there she is “the Dutch girl” and she sees certain things from a more western perspective. She notices things that are completely normal for Turkish people but seem more strange when you’re living in a Western culture. “Memories” is a photoserie on her Grandmothers house. Until…

First outfit post!… Festival Fae

Festival Fae witchy outfit

As some of you alreay know I spend a lot of my time working as a graphic designer and photographer for the most awesome alternative fashion store: Attitude Holland.  I started working there as an intern and back then I moved to Amsterdam. When my internship came to an end and I had some schoolwork left to finish I had to move back to Enschede. Which meanes that it takes about 3 hours to get from my home to the Attitude Holland office.Since I can do most of my tasks at home(or at my new personal office space) I only visit them a couple times a month. Which is a bit sad because it’s a lot of fun working with them and it’s way easier to stay motivated when you’re working at an office with other people than when you’re on your own the entire day. But it’s probably better…

Graspop Metal Meeting 2015

Hi! Now I finally got a good night’s sleep it’s time for a post on the past few days: Graspop Metal Meeting In short? IT WAS AWESOME! And I’m still extremely hungry and tired, haha. Thursday 10.30 present at Hengelo railway station, getting this adventure started by travelling with the Metal bus! The amount of people in our bus? Five, we had to stop at Goor, Deventer, Arnhem and Eindhoven to pick up some more. But since we were the first we had the very best spots in the bus, a good start. Everything was going quite well until we left Arnhem and ended up in a traffic jam for TWO hours. After the jam finally ended the bus driver had to take a break for 45 minutes, so by that time we got a delay of almost three hours. We were meeting two of our friends at the festival,…

Time for a new start…

new name new place new site

Hi there, Some of you might already know me and some of you might have stumbled upon here by chance. If your with the last group I recommend you to pay a visit to my about page. If your with the first, hi again! Just keep on reading, if you like. So the name change… From Sharon Duursma Photography to Sharon Dusk. It’s easier don’t you think? A little over a month ago I graduated from Art & Technology. Since I get bored really easily and I really don’t want to end up unemployed I decided it was time for something new. And the first thing that had to change? My name. Let’s face it, Duursma isn’t really easy to pronounce in English, or any other foreign languages. Since the alternative scene is a lot bigger in Germany and England I knew it had to change. If you can’t pronounce…
