Instead of the dynamics, action and drama of professional football, the Dutch photographer Hans van der Meer shows the random football fields. These are not the homes of football association teams playing in sports complexes with well-drained fields built by the community, but those accidental, cosy pitches out among the pastures, or, on the contrary, in the middle of some old urban neighbourhood, pitches surrounded with rows of poplars or with a drainage ditch next to them, with a plank laid over it as a bridge. Van der Meer’s soccer pictures are a cross between landscape photography and mild yet humorous observations of human frailty.
