Photographer Jolijn Snijders (Eindhoven) shows a selection from her oeuvre in her first solo exhibition entitled "Celebrating the Spirit of Youth". Recurring themes in her work are self-image issues, coming of age and its accompanying freedom and anxiety. After graduating from St. Joost Art Academy, Jolijn Snijders worked as an illustrator and graphic designer in advertising, shortly thereafter she embarked on her successful career as a fashion photographer. Her work in fashion cities such as Amsterdam, Milan and London did not go unnoticed and she distinguishes herself through a striking combination of aesthetically pleasing photography and an elusive fragility of her subjects.
