Van Campen is concerned with human and non-human life, the environment and social cohesion. Having travelled the world, he experienced and survived an Exocet attack in Iran, worked under military protection in Angola during the civil war, fought over diamonds and oil, witnessed the chaos of Kinshasa, walked the dirty streets of Lagos and obeyed orders to stay indoors during curfew in Abidjan when the first civil war started.
