About

Hello I’m Dries and I practise Creative Development as an excuse to travel the world, meet creative people and get coffee perks.

I’ve had the pleasure to support ambitious startups like Mmerch, Anatha and Fotomat as part of the founding team. And work for awesome agencies like Hello Comrade, Ode to A and more. In the past I ran the Fotohal Photography Festival and founded the Close My Eyes fine-art store. I’ve had the pleasure to support talented artists through the Japan Photo Awards, the New Japan Photo publications and other venues. Before that I studied Philosophy and before that I was born, opened my eyes and cried my greeting as loud as my little lungs could carry.
