“It’s hard. It’s scary. I’m slowly learning, little by little trying to understand this Japanese way. But it feels like I’ll never fully comprehend.”
– Anton Kusters
Anton Kusters was born in Belgium in 1974. After obtaining a Master’s degree in Political Philosophy at the University of Louvain, he studied Photography at STUK and at the Academy of Fine Arts in Hasselt, Belgium. In 2001 he started a web and graphic design company. Anton Kusters’ desire to collaborate with other artists and helping young talent resulted in Burn Magazine, a magazine dedicated to the Emerging Photographer Grant he founded together with David Alan Harvey. Currently Kusters is working on a long term conceptual project to never forget the Holocaust and its heavens above, and on a documentary project about finding where one belongs.
