Follow the Queen and the online chronicles In the past, queens were like the original influencers, ruling with grace and authority in their kingdoms. They had their portraits painted by famous artists, and their images became iconic works of art. But today, we have new leaders, the 'social media queens, who don't use swords, but selfies, to rule their kingdom. They use hashtags instead of scepters, and their followers are like their loyal followers, spread across the digital world.

Kaat Stieber is a fine art photographer who weaves the worlds of surrealism and noble Dutch art into her images. Mixing her broad set of creative skills with an internationally acclaimed background in theatre and costume design, her photos are assembled with vast craftmanship. Kaat's works of art resemble tableaus from the Dutch Golden Age, a rich realm of paintings and a constant source of identification. An admiration of surrealists adds to the scene.
