Change is only a difference between two points (A and B) on a timeline. Pr...

All vulvas are unique just like our hands, noses and eyes are. Though there’s often just one kind of vulva shape presented in popular media. Whether it’s in magazines, mainstream porn or even biology books, the ‘beauty ideal’ that is often been presented to us is pink, small and mostly hairless.

And of course, this could be you. However, in many cases it won’t be. Having a vulva that looks different to this beauty ideal leaves many of us feeling weird, ugly or ashamed. We think we a...

Een bijzondere selectie van de beste - en veel nieuwe - beelden van dé urban explorer-pionier in handzaam formaat. Terwijl zijn crew aan het zwembad uitrust, trekt piloot en fotograaf Henk van Rensbergen op egpeditie naar verlaten stadspaleizen, overgroeide fabrieken of desolate stukken groen.Altijd vindt van Rensbergen schoonheid in het verval en dat pikte de (internationale) pers snel op.
