A propos du livre

À propos de l'auteur

During his teenage years, Stacii Samidin (1987, Rotterdam) had difficulty conforming to the world around him. Being labeled by stereotypes and feeling unheard himself, Hip Hop and radicalism became his allies. He started documenting his environment without the intent of becoming a photographer. This came to the attention of a professional documentary photographer who introduced him to the field. Shortly after, Samidin got the opportunity to exhibit his first series Moluccans in The Netherlands (2011), a controversial subject about the Republic of South Maluku (RMS) youth, in the Nederlands Fotomuseum. From that moment on Samidin understood the power of his medium. Photography became his language and it continues to have a tremendous influence on his personal life and strong work ethic. 

Becoming the first gang photographer of The Netherlands was his goal until he was yet again confronted by stereotypical labels and started travelling extensively. This developed the desire to question one’s truth. Studying the relationship between the character of a person and its environment. Offering a platform for open and honest dialogue. A broader motive came to life: Societies (2008). 

À propos de la quatrième de couverture

The awe-inspiring debut of one-of-a-kind photographer Stacii Samidin

Raw honesty, radicalism and unfamiliar territories are the foundation of the work of photographer Stacii Samidin (b. 1987). At the core is the essence of seeing, hearing and accepting a human being without prejudice and judgement. Documenting the lives of minorities, the oppressed and those with unorthodox lifestyles all around the world in his life’s work Societies, he challenges our perception and raises the voices of the unheard or silenced through photography.

With a text contribution by Tracy Metz and an introduction by Koos Breukel and Hedy van Erp.

Publication accompanying the exhibition at Galerie Weisbard, Rotterdam, from 26 April until 17 May 2025.
