    _______________

    With her new series 'Shy Lights, Fast-Paced', made for De Marktkantine Ramona Deckers was given the task to document a little bit of Amsterdam. So she looked for places we don't really register; passing-through places. She shot some pictures underneath a bridge. The indoors pictures were shot in a storage room (people come here once or twice a year to dump their stuff) inside a monumental building, the Entrepotdok, one of the city's biggest warehouse complexes. This method is a playful way to get to reacquaint oneself with the city and to be present and aware of one's surroundings.

    Subsequently she was looking for contrasts, textures, lines and patterns, inert concrete objects and the rawness of the city juxtaposing this image with a female body portraying curvature, movement and energy.

    Ramona tries to capture the atmosphere of a city, its turmoil and the melancholic beauty of the everyday both positive and negative. A city has a lot of good and beauty to offer yet it can be quite lonely and harsh.
    _______________

    Ramona Deckers' photographs, mostly of friends, are raw, emotive and lay bare private moments. Their trust allows her to get close and reach a level of intimacy, honesty and realism that would be much more difficult to achieve with random strangers. It opens the door to a beauty of the natural kind. The chemistry between subject and photographer, one of the most important aspects of shooting candid portraits, is already established.

    In her freetime she travels a lot and devotes her time to capturing the unfolding narrative on film. She calls America her second home. Big cities, the ruins, the silence, the emptiness and urban density; humans - so delicate and fragile - interacting with an enormous city. It's these fine contrasts that inspire her most.
