Dutch Drugs Stories

In 2021, Poppi made a unique photo archive available to the general public for the first time. Photos by award-winning photographers show you the Dutch drug scene in a raw and moving way.

The Amsterdam street scene from the 1990s meets today’s drug users in this exhibition. What can they learn from each other? And how does the ecstasy of today compare to the heroin of the past? Themes such as stigma, shame, loss of control, but also pleasure come together in photo and film.

Immerse yourself in the life of a young woman in the streetwalking zone in this dynamic exhibition. Adjust your image of someone who smokes base coke. Learn how the lives of people who use drugs changed completely during the Corona pandemic. And enjoy the slide show about a unique ski holiday by a group of heroin users.
