FORENSICS (2014)
The Netherlands leads the way when it comes to new forensic methods and techniques to carry out research in criminal cases even more quickly and more advanced. But what does forensic research actually entail? Where and how are these specialists trained, and how is what is learnt practiced and then later applied at a crime scene? In FORENSICS, Jeroen Hofman maps out the broad spectrum of science and technology used in the process of establishing the truth in criminal cases – from cold cases, blood spatter analysis and offender profiles to pathological-anatomical research and DNA traces.

PLAYGROUND (Netherlands, 2009-2010)
In PLAYGROUND Jeroen Hofman photographs the surreal training environments used by police, fire brigades and defence forces. At various places around The Netherlands whole towns and factory complexes have been recreated, where realistic scenarios can be simulated so well that the gap between training and practice is almost eliminated. Hofman's project is being made possible in part by a subsidy from the Anna Cornelis Fund and the Sem Presser Archive Foundation, and is still ongoing.
