Peter van der Wijk creates art in three dimensions. Born and raised in Friesland, he began his career in the medical field, far from the world of art, though a drive for creativity was always present. Discovering the technology of 3D printing opened up a whole new world for him. Initially, it served as a tool for creating anatomical models, but it soon revealed itself to be a powerful artistic medium.
With this realization, Peter began creating his own groundbreaking works of art, blending his passion for technology and creative expression. Themes such as technology, biology, and anthropology are central to his work, forming the foundation of his sculptures. By bridging the worlds of technology and art, he aims to push the boundaries of both disciplines and inspire his audience.
