ABOUT

Invisible Forces is a collaborative photographic project created by both Blok and Broekmans in the late 1970s. After meeting at the Photo Festival in Arles, France they began a unique collaboration in which they worked, lived, and signed every print together. "We were not aware that this was so exceptional. We were made aware of this years later by several photography experts." The work created by Blok and Broekmans portrays themes of life, death, sexuality, mythology, dreams and nightmares through nude self portraiture. They explored these ideas in avante-garde and antagonistic ways. Their raw creative process was symbiotic. Lead by their subconscious, the two women created deep and performative imagery inspired by imagination, struggle, love and ordinary life.
