Gijs Wouters
positions himself with a strong visual communication as a Fluid designer, with the ambition to remain active in the changeable landscape between nature and culture.
The human being is central to exploiting and using the materials we have in this world, as raw material for form and application. Adapted to new needs, reuse or beauty and rich in renewed applications. A world that challenges Gijs through his strong connection with his immediate environment and sometimes retreating to nature.
