'MOTHERS FINEST'

ABOUT THIS ICEHOCKEY ART CALENDAR
The inception of this photo project traces back to a friendly mixed tournament,
where we reenacted the match at the bar without masks and equipment. To my
surprise, those who dominated the ice with their imposing size and aggressive
play turned out to be surprisingly humble boys and girls. This led to the idea
of creating an art calendar featuring artistic photos of ice hockey players from
the OG Capitals 1 Leeuwarden. In my view, ice hockey remains an underexposed
sport in the Netherlands. Initially, I intended to focus on capturing the faces
behind the mask, but that changed when they took off their shirts in the studio.
In an era dominated by Photoshop and AI filters for making and sharing flawless
selfies and portraits online, this approach was ‘analog’, genuine and
consequently, quite impactful. The interesting and funny part is that most
players are oblivious to how good they actually look. Standing in their gear
plain and simple without Photoshop or AI filters. With these portraits, my goal
was to capture the raw beauty and expressions of these ice hockey players using
only light. I call it “painting with light” or simply the naked truth: ‘What you
see is what you get.’
