- Mental Health ToysArt Direction: Annemarieke Kloosterhof Photography: Nick Dunne This series explores various aspect of Mental Health, disorders, and other neurodiversity, in an inviting way that is colourful, accessible and most of all: kid friendly.

The aim of this project was to create a series of still life photo-illustrations targeted to young children, in a way to help explain these sometimes complicated medical terms through a medium they are famili

- Under The Sea“Under The Sea” is a collaborative project between paper set designer Annemarieke Kloosterhof and still life photographer Nick Dunne. The piece was made for World Ocean Day, depicting a tiny handcrafted ocean floor of paper coral reefs, handcut seaweed and recycled paper rocks, to celebrate the importance of our underwater world, its plants and its micro organisms. We experimented with special lighting techniques, mimicking the way sunlight reflects on the moving ocean waves and how it illumi
