Pie Aerts

Pie Aerts (@pie_aerts) is a Dutch documentary and wildlife photographer with a sincere interest in human/wildlife conflict stories. Through his lens, he examines the intricate relationship between animals, humans and nature. As we become increasingly distant from each other and ourselves, Pie uses photography to search for the cause of this disconnection. After more than 10 years of fieldwork all across the African continent and beyond, as a photographer as well as an activist, Pie has developed an intricate understanding, connection and passion for documenting the last wild corners of our planet. He's the founder of "Prints for Wildlife", a fundraising initiative that supports African area's badly hit by Covid. His first best-selling book "Tales from the Roads less Traveled" was published by teNeues in 2019 and sold 8000 copies worldwide.
