Prompted by the imminent demolition of the original farmhouse, she went back to photograph it and document the changing nature of the farm.Many farms have become unprofitable within the changing economies of Europe and, more specifically, the way in which land use has been reconstituted in the Netherlands. What has happened to the house symbolises many of the wider processes that are happening to farming families in the area. Farm won the Andrew Sproxton Award, the Association of Photographers Awards ( silver awards - personal project ) and has been exhibited at Naarden Fotofestival, the Netherlands and Les Rencontres d'Arles. The book "Farm" is available at bookshops and www.schaden.comLOST ISLAND Tiengemeten is a small island small island situated in the south of the Netherlands. It was, until recently, predominantly occupied by seven farming families. In 1994 the Dutch Society for the Preservation of Nature bought the island in order to convert Tiengemeten into a nature reserve. The farmers had to leave their homes and land. The farms are now unoccupied and rapidly falling into ruin.HONEY OH I DO LIKE Oh! I do like to be beside the seaside I do like to be beside the sea! I do like to stroll upon the Prom, Prom, Prom!
