I brought together the stories that came out of the workshops in the publication Strandlegendes (Beach Legends). The book is part of StrandLAB’s series Strandvertalingen.

The short stories sit alongside the images made for them: drawings in ink from beach plants, colour tests and cyanotypes developed in the IJmeer. Together the stories form one world: Luminara, an enchanted land by the water, where a fire mistress, a lobster, a fairy, the green woman, Neptune and a swan in love help each other against the Ice Army.
