Who is Johan henri kause?
Johan Henri (Joop) Kause was born in Amsterdam the Netherlands in 1955. His childhood years were marked by severe dyslexia resulting in considerable educational and social difficulties. When he was in his thirties, Joop also lost around 80% of his eyesight and was diagnosed with Asperger Syndrome, the 'invisible' disability which is closely related to autism. Perhaps as compensation, Joop developed an outstanding memory and, being someone with great enthusiasm for self-education and possessing a high degree of self-motivation, he taught himself the ins and outs of digital photo editing software with astonishing results. Today, Joop puts his heart and soul into transforming his own and other people's photography into pure works of art.
Joop's extraordinary pieces grow from feelings of love, anger, hurt, happiness or confusion and through his work he very successfully finds a way to express and translate his often complex emotions into something stunningly beautiful. His remarkable talent, intense motivation and exemplary confidence in his own abilities have helped him to create the unique and often very moving pieces we present to you here.
