About
My name is Joosje Strüwer, born in 1994. I am an Amsterdam based artist, graduated art teacher and architectural designer.

Study history
After high school I exchanged Amsterdam for Maastricht to study Architecture & Interior at the Academy of Visual Arts Maastricht.

I successfully completed my study in 2017. For my graduation I did research on the influence of public space on social cohesion in neighborhoods and analized the spatial processes that play a role in this. Although my love and passion for architecture and interior design will continue, I also developed a strong need to orientate myself further and be inspired more broadly.

In 2017 I moved back to Amsterdam. I started my second study at the Breitner Academy in Amsterdam to become a first degreed art teacher. I graduated in 2019 with my thesis on Art and Entrepreneurship. Since then I have been working as an art teacher in Amsterdam.
Inspiration
During my study years I have learned a lot about visual arts, architecture, interior design and urban design. Over the years I have gained experience in the field of painting, illustration, model building, product design and I immerse myself in graphic design. In my view, these disciplines overlap, and a broad knowledge of different disciplines can lead to interesting designs.

I get my inspiration everywhere: from movies and music to nature and people. My goal is to inspire people and to collaborate with other creatives from different disciplines.

Creation in isolation
The covid-19 lockdown inspired me to do what I like most: experimenting, drawing, painting, working with my hands. This has led to a series of paintings and sculptures with views that I have longed for during isolation.
