ESNS Photo

What happens when three creators, each with their own rhythm and sensitivity, approach the music world from the inside? ESNS Photo 2026 shows how music settles into people, places, and colours, and how images can sometimes convey just as much feeling as sound. Northern-Dutch photographers Niels Meijer, Nick Helderman and Jantina Talsma together form a triangle of perspectives in this first edition: each with a slightly different angle, and a different way of looking—of ‘listening with their eyes.’ ESNS Photo 2026 brings their worlds together in this first edition and reveals what music can look like when you stop merely looking and start feeling.
