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 was in march 2011.
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.
He also engaged in social activities such as neighbourhood activities and volunteering work.
Wout Zweers enjoys hiking in the mountains, biking and sailing. These activities inspire him and clear up his thinking. Patterns are a subject of study and find their way into various sculptures, designs and forms.
He found in 2011 an interesting, inspiring job as designer and coordinator at FabLab Enschede where people know him now as an enthousiast and inspiring collegue. However he still maintains his freelance work to stay fresh and open for new ideas.
