Chasing the Sun

Autonomous photographer Merlijn Hooijsma exhibits in literary café de Engelbewaarder. During the making of Chasing the Sun I was inspired by the invisible forces that shape our world, the bond with my brother, the coherence of man and nature and life in the here and now.

Chasing the Sun

Two brothers on the other side of the world, where time passes differently than "at home." Travel takes over, and they are left with what they have—each other. With travel, there is no tomorrow, only now.

As young boys, we dreamed of traveling Down Under together. The imagination of what we would see there surged through our entire being. Last year, we took our fate into our own hands and embarked on the adventure. Away from all expectations, away from the "norm." In search of the soul and meaning of this life. The urge for adventure took over.

The moon was upside down. The native animals and nature—everything was completely different.
