Lens op de Mens Photo Festival Pelt 8 June – 28 September 2025
During the summer of 2025, Lens op de Mens – Fotofestival Pelt organised, in cooperation with the town council of Pelt and CC Palethe, the fifth edition of the biennial photo festival ‘Lens op de Mens’.
On 28 September, the photo festival was closed with the symbolic removal of the first photo in the presence of the board and the many volunteers without whom the organisation of this festival would have been impossible.
Three of my photographs were selected for this year’s exhibition with the theme of “human vulnerability”. I received the Silver Award in the professional photographer’s category. The award ceremony was held at the CC Palethe in Pelt hosted by Carine Van Gerven, the President, and Johan Brouwers, vice-president and chairman of the competition jury.
As a winner you are invited to submit five photographs and a brief CV for a special guest exhibition during the next edition of Lens op de Mens in 2027. I look forward to returning to Pelt and seeing the incredible team who make Lens op de Mens possible.
