NYCTOPHILIA

AN EXPLORATION OF THE UNSEEN

I make images 

to stay with

what is vulnerable

THE ARTIST

NYCTOPHILIA explores

intimacy, desire, fragility

and the things we often

leave unseen.

Daphne Matthys is a Belgian photographer and artist exploring vulnerability, intimacy and the unseen. Her work moves between light and darkness, where photography becomes a way of giving form to what is often felt but rarely seen.​​
