Wout zweers
Wout zweers is a Dutch sculptor, industrial designer and scenographer. He has completed the academy of fine arts in Enschede and graduated in mixed media. Before becoming a professional artist he graduated in Wageningen University in agricultural science, specialized in watermanagement and irrigation science. After about 15 years in theater and fine arts he decided to refresh and broaden his view and started his master study in Industrial Design Engineering in Enschede. Graduation is estimated for fall 2010.
His art work is dynamic and inventive. He made machine like sculptures and vehicles inspired by the use of mechanics and technology in our society, later he incorporated his ideas and skills in set design, in which he strives toward interaction of set and actors.
His industrial design work becomes more important as the study proceeds. His latest designs are now in preparation for production and he refurbishes his studio for designing and building prototypes.
He also engages in social activities such as neighbourhood activities and volunteering work
Wout Zweers enjoys hiking in the mountains, biking, canoing and sailing. These activities inspire him and clear up his thinking. However, his study and set design will take most of his time until graduation in 2010. He looks for new areas of work now, influenced by his new study.
His goal is to combine his knowledge and skills and his social commitment. And of course constructing and inventing things, whatever comes first.
