Ernst Coppejans graduated from the Photo Academy Amsterdam after a career in product design, and has been working as a photographer since. His editorial work was published in newspapers and magazines, among those Het Parool, Volkskrant Magazine and LINDA.
In addition to his commissioned projects, he works on personal projects and concepts.
With his photographic series, Ernst conveys stories he feels need to be told. He is fascinated by people, the lives they live and the choices they make. Coppejans’s concepts emerge from his own experiences and curiosity about the lives of seemingly ordinary and extraordinary people. The strength of the underdog is a central theme in his work.
His work has been showcased at Unseen and in the Tropenmuseum (Amsterdam), Museum de Fundatie (Zwolle), art fairs in Basel, Miami and San Francisco and at photo festival Cortona On The Move (Italy).
Ernst Coppejans has won several awards for his photographic works, including twice a Zilveren Camera award.
