Traces & Omens
Adrienne van Eekelen
RAPHAËLA (1994-2004)
Over the period of ten years, Adrienne van Eekelen photographed the girl Raphaëla and her physical development into a young woman. Van Eekelen conceived the project because she could no longer consciously recall how she herself had experienced the physical and emotional changes during her own growth process from a child to an adult. In doing this she wanted, she says, to have the courage to show something that 'is pure, honest and real' in these times. With the fullest confidence from Raphaëla and her mother she began the series, and RAPHAËLA (1994-2004) is now ready to be shown to the outside world. It was her decision to wait for this until Raphaëla was an adult, because according to her the project was 'vulnerable, fragile and intimate' for all involved.

Adrienne van Eekelen
KOP VAN ZUID
This is the fourth time that Adrienne van Eekelen is taking part in the main exhibition at Noorderlicht. After her portraits of Russian women (1995), pregnant women (1997), and her picture report on a stay in a Japanese artists village (1999), she is now present with work about her own environment, the new Kop van Zuid neighbourhood in Rotterdam, a project she began in 1993. That is the year Van Eekelen settled in the former harbour area, and saw the old Kop van Zuid disappearing before her eyes and the new one arise. In nighttime shots she recorded how the area underwent a magical change.
