Their photographies explore the workings of perception and systems of perspective, as well as humankind's relationship to nature and the landscape. The differences and similarities between Western and Eastern traditions of painting and photographing nature deeply shape their work and thinking. Hiryczuk/ Van Oevelen regulary publish essays on their blog The Detached Gaze and in magazines such as Philosophy of Photography and EXTRA ¬– Photography in Context.

In addition to making art he co-founded the practice and research-based art platform Radical Reversibility co-curating international art exhibitions Seeing Without A Seer (2018) and From Seeing To Acting (2021).
