His work is influenced by August Sander, Walker Evans, the Bechers and Garry Winogrand. Eijkelboom also has a great affinity with Martin Parr as they both offer a critical review on how complicated life can be. He has an extremely interesting work technique. He goes to a city and looks for a good place with lots of passing pedestrian traffic. He will look around for ten minutes or so and decides his theme for the day. Then he shoots for two hours, no more. He hangs his camera around his neck and uses his remote shutter release, which is in his pocket, when he takes a photograph. He lays his images out in grids complete with a date stamp beneath, also noting the place and time period.
