BIOGRAPHY
Lianne van de Laar finished her studies Photographic Design at the HKU Utrecht in 2004, after studying Audiovisual Design and Art History. Since the third year of her studies she has been working as an independent artist with applied and autonomous photography and later also with video and installation art.
Her wide range of projects in different fields of the creative industrie and arts has given her the opportunity to work with graphic, fashion and light designers, illustrators and musicians. These cross-over experiences influenced her work to a graphic, minimal and rhythmic visual style with a focus on detail in light and composition. Though her inspirations are scenes drawn from reality she feels a necessity to alter or rebuild structures, compositions and light-situations. Making her work 'clean' from chaos and distractions to create her own vision on a moment or fragment that caught her eye.
Next to her photographic work she works with video. From 2012 until 2015 as a video artist with Leipzig based music label Holger working together with musicians within the label on video projects and live-performances. Together with light designer Carsten Rüger she forms the collective CC.LL, working as a creative team for theater, live performances and festivals, combining light and video that merges with a space, musical performance or a directors concept.
