Linda Borst (1985) is a Utrecht based photographer. Eversince she graduated in 2014 from the HKU she does long term projects using a large format camera.  

In her projects she investigates the way in which individuals or communities are influenced by changes in their environment. While these changes are usually determining for both the life style and the life standard, the way in which we cope with these changes can vary tremendously. Documenting and investigating the means by which people approach them is central to her work.
