About event
The exhibition" Meet Bob "by Dutch photographer Jasper Doest revolves around the Caribbean Flamingo Bob: his life took a dramatic turn when he flew against a hotel window on Curaçao and suffered serious injuries. Well-groomed and tapped by a local veterinarian, he quickly became the hope of the island and her wildlife and environmental protection initiative. The long -term project by photographer Jasper Doest deals with the fragility of our ecosystem and the effects on wild animals. By choosing the Flamingo Bob as a protagonist, the photographer researches how environmental photography can serve as a pioneer for a better future.
Jasper Doest is a documentary photographer with a focus on animal and environmental photography. His photographs have been awarded multiple awards (World Press Photo Award, etc.) and appeared in numerous publications, including National Geographic , geo and Smithsonian
