KAS VAN VLIET (1994 - PRESENT)
Camera artist, journalist, (social-)entrepeneur.
After being born in the identity-challenged city of Almere and blossoming in Eindhoven, Kas began his journey at the School of Journalism in Utrecht. While the post-truth society sprouted from our Astroturf frontyards, he learned what objectivity supposedly means – or at least what we think it meant — so he could later toss it overboard.
Although Kas once started out capturing reality during a brief career in photojournalism, he now devotes his time to orchestrating alternative realities — the kind that sometimes say more about our times than truth ever could. He turned his back on the so-called ‘real’ and found his calling in transforming images into dystopian screenshots from a video game no one wants to play, but everybody has to.
Next to his passion of photography Kas devotes his time to try and create a kinder world through entrepeneurship. In the past with his photography collective Wildschieters, momentarily with De Broeikas.com. – Oh no wait that burned down in 2025 –
Artwise, Kas is currently exploring new ways and styles to express his desires and anxieties more explicitly through photography — and to share his work in the same public spaces where he finds his inspiration. Outdoors.
