Aart Verrips
Aart Verrips is a Durban-raised South African based filmmaker and photographer whose work follows a particular narrative around authenticity and connecting audiences emotionally with different subject matters. Verrips is always drawn to nontraditional faces in his photographic work, with the aim of showcasing a new standard of beauty, and breathing in life to both his static and motion pictures. In a Kaleidoscope of jewel tones, Verrips' images have a crisp clean aesthetic, with a playful romanticism distilled by artful blurs, spontaneous choreography, and sculptural, printed backgrounds.
