De Volkskrant 2025

The assignment was to document the Tireragan Estate on the Isle of Mull, Scotland, which is a successful rewilding project that local artists Rutger Emmelkamp and Miek Zwamborn, of the KNOCKvologan studio, help run. The conservation project covers 625 hectares of coastal land, which is being rewilded with an emphasis on restoring peat and woodlands whilst offering education, research and leisure use of the estate.

For this assignment, I produced stills, video and drone shots with words by Patrick van IJzendoorn. The work made the front page of De Volkskrant and was used as an online feature.
