A few weeks ago, Anton Corbijn visited my studio in Alkmaar. Anton, for me, is one of the greatest portrait photographers from the Netherlands. It was an honor to have take his portrait.

Portrait of Ambo Mendy (2/3)
A few years ago I met Ambo Mendy in Paris. During this first meeting in 2016 with, model and dancer, Mendy, I realized that this would not be the last meeting. A year later, I travelled back to France to film him. A trip through the historic city of Paris brought us to the suburbs of Paris where Ambo grew up. I was curious about where he learned to dance, where he grew up and where he practices his dance nowadays. A musical and moving portrait is the result of these encounters. This is part 2/3 shot in his old neighbourhood.
