BIO

Corrine Bot holds a Masters of Arts in Psychology from the University of Leiden in 1998, and a Bachelor’s degree in Audiovisual Design from the Rotterdam University of Applied Sciences in 2006. Since then Corrine has made several experimental shorts which have won awards and showcased at film festivals internationally. Corrine’s films have screened at more than 50 film festivals worldwide.
After her degree in Audiovisual Design Corrine started the Jack & Jill photography project, in which she depicts the every day life of two young people in a relationship.
Corrine Bot will go on taking pictures of Jack & Jill when they’re old and grey. So be prepared for a Jack & Jill in their eighties snapshot! The Jack & Jill photography project will go on untill they die. Unless they split up. But that won’t happen. Because both characters are played by Corrine Bot herself.
