Over de kunstenaar
VanPetnaarPret & Signify
The collaboration between vanPetnaarPret and Signify shows how co-creation between a small creative maker and a global company can lead to big impact.
Rolph Adriaansen, born in Woensdrecht, began his career as a business economist and made the leap to entrepreneurship in 2016 with vanPetnaarPret. He launched this creative initiative to teach children about recycling and sustainability in a playful way — using deposit-free PET bottles. The project grew into a success, with a highlight being the unveiling of Kroonluchter Ø13 in the LocHal. Although Adriaansen doesn’t consider himself an artist, his work is a beautiful blend of art and innovation.
