Elmer
De Haas

The Dutch artist Elmer De Haas stands out for his mastery of the use of black and white, a characteristic that comes to the fore in his project extracts Old Face | Young Face | No Face and The Stories They Tell.

He now divides his time between San Pantaleo, Sardegna, and his home town Amsterdam. ​​While Blacktip Productions focus on commercials and film-making, Elmer’s photography and sculptures depicts moments in time, both fleeting and expansive, observant and intimate.
In San Pantaleo he takes Wet Plate Collodion portraits – an old style technique from the 1850’s and continue working on his goldleaf touched sculptures.
His work is often characterized as “work that embodies great emotional depth, with a sensitive eye for composition and storytelling”.
​Elmer’s uncommissioned work is collected by a growing international clientele in Amsterdam, Zurich, Berlin and London.
