Synopsis

Self-taught, Woudt rose rapidly on the international photography scene, with exhibitions, publications and collaborations worldwide. His works have been acquired by collectors and institutions, establishing him as one of the leading contemporary photographers working in monochrome. 

For Woudt, photography is not about documentation but about transformation. Through careful composition and post-production, he elevates reality into something otherworldly. 

  • Black and white mastery: stripping away color to reveal essence. 

  • Timeless portraits: capturing strength and vulnerability in equal measure. 

  • Artistic precision: blending technical control with poetic sensibility. 

His practice is characterized by digital photography and meticulous editing, producing prints of exceptional depth and clarity. Works are often presented in large scale, reinforcing their sculptural quality.
