I've been thinking about Hellen Van Meene's work lately. With my upcoming trip to Amsterdam, I harboured the slim hope I might be able to meet with her. I find her portraits haunting and intimate and her use of natural light so effective. Joerg Colberg, at Conscientious, has an interview with her here.
