About Artist

Loes van Iperen

I’m a self-taught photographer, born and raised in Amsterdam and currently based in Hong Kong. I work exclusively with 35mm film. I love its tones, texture and timelessness, but also the challenges and imperfections that come with it. My photos are full of colour, but never loud. I favour understated storytelling, leaving space for the viewer to find their own way into the image. Nostalgia is a recurring thread in my work, both in the way I photograph and in the subjects I’m drawn to.
