Rythm

After starting my career as a professional photographer 10 years ago, one of my biggest dreams of releasing a big collector’s book has become reality. "Rhythm" is an assemblage of commissioned work and work from my private archive. The book is a self-reflective document that I’m proud to say - was published by 1605 Publishers, my own publishing house. For me, the process of selecting, post-producing and revisiting 10 years of such personal work has been a cathartic experience during the global pandemic. My creative evolution, who I am today and where I’m headed as a photographer has now been encapsulated within exactly 500 pages.

The rhythm of the book is dictated by the correlation between the image you see and the one consecutively. It is not determined by series, purely selected by how one photo ‘speaks’ to the other. "Rhythm" is a personal journey through my own body of work that brings up the highlights of my career: projects that I’ve accomplished and people that I’ve had the pleasure of meeting.

“Rhythm” was published by 1605 Publishers, Bastiaan Woudt’s own publishing house. And it isn’t just a photobook but a self-reflective document in which Woudt describes the process of selecting, post-producing and revisiting 10 years of such personal work.
