  • The project showcases some of the experiences of my one-year stay in The Hague, NL, between August 2009 and 2010. Taking the form of a visual diary, it documents different stages in time and space during that year. These are witnessed through my workspace at the university, supermarket receipts, the nearby beach, train tickets and locations I biked to.
