Mining sand in Kepuharjo

25 December 2006 - At Christmas day work continues as usual for hundreds of villagers in the district of Cangkringan. Money is being made from sand. With the most recent eruption of Gunung Merapi, a wealth of sand and stones came down several of it's slopes. This fresh supply is a big source of income for many villagers, especially after the first rains of the wet monsoon this year brought the supply close to their villages and main roads. It's just a matter of loading it onto a truck and sell it.

Kampungs in Malang

August 2006 - On a short trip to Malang I spent some time making pictures of some kampung areas in Malang. Some of these pictures show a little bit of the daily life in these areas which differs quite a lot from many people's 3-or-more star hotels directly in the heart of the tourist destinations.

Did the Japanese leave traces?

The building of the former Gouvernments Lyceum at the Van den Boschstraat at the J.P. Coen-square was used for other purposes in the Second World War. Every day people are said to have been brought in, which were killed when being tortured.
