Loïs Weeber (She/her), from Utrecht.
Multidisciplinary creative with a love for Art Direction, Concept and Graphic Design.
Currently a student, Bachelor of Arts in Advertising, at the Willem de Kooning Academy, Rotterdam.
My biggest inspiration as a creative is finding deeper layers in social topics and giving a voice to untold stories and unheard voices. This interest got, among others, triggered during my time in Curaçao; from being a tourist, to a student/intern, to working and living there as a resident. I got confronted and inspired, by these different layers and opposites of the island that live among each other, seeking for connection.
"Starting the conversation and translating heartfelt connections to visual stories."

Stichting Nederland Bedankt
Together with volunteer journalists, photographers and designers, we worked on Nederland Bedankt during the first COVID-19 lockdown. A project that serves as a beautiful reminder of the many local heroes who have selflessly worked to make such a positive impact in such a difficult time.
