Marvel Harris (1995) started capturing himself with the camera to manage emotions he was not capable of putting into words adequately. In the beginning, this most often was when he experienced feelings such as anxiety, loneliness, or feeling desperate about the future. Looking at his work from a distance, he realized photography has helped him to understand his own complex identity.

Marvel aims to reveal that which is hidden, and wants to make the lifelong journey of self-discovery visible with his camera. He was born and raised in the Netherlands and successfully graduated as a photographer at the University of Applied Photography.
