THIJS BIERSTEKER

Thijs is an interactive artist that creates awareness installations about the world most pressing issues. He seamlessly combines science and technology to deliver an empowering experience that is accessible both intellectually and technologically.

His large-scale immersive art installations are a surprising mesh of data, analog elements, digital visuals, kinetic motion and virtual reality that explore the gap between the physical and digital, data and emotions, industry and nature.  

His work provokes thought about sustainability, celebrates the good use of data, lets our brain waves overcome diversity and turns your movements into the plastic ocean trash.  He produces his work in a conscious way with talented teams that share the same vision on a circulair and sustainable future.

Thijs is currently artist in residence at the Technical University of Delft. He has exhibited amongst others at MU Art Gallery (NL), Times Art Museum (CN), SXSW (USA), Stedelijk Museum Amsterdam (NL) and Down the Rabbit Hole festival (NL).
