Peter van Straten (ZA '72)

Velen geloven dat ze nooit dromen. Sommigen geloven dat dromen nooit uitkomen. Ik geloof dat dromen de metaforen zijn van de mogelijke werkelijkheid. Van magische, mysterieuze verbeeldingen die nog nooit getoond zijn. Beelden die ik kan creëren.

Peter van Straten

 

Van  Straten is geboren in 1972 in Johannesburg, Zuid Afrika. Bij zijn afstuderen werd hij beloond met de prestigieuze Sanlam Student Art Award. Hij wordt exclusief vertegenwoordigd in de Benelux door The Obsession of Art.
