About Diederik Schneemann

Diederik Schneemann is an Artist/designer based in Rotterdam. His work balances between art and design. Communicating more than just esthetics alone. His oeuvre distinguishes itself by often re-using items, altering their looks or their use in such a way that a new concept and a second life is created and thus evocating a new unexpected reality.
