Favourite place to hang out in Amsterdam:
My favourite place in Amsterdam is my studio which is located in Buitenveldert. It’s a unique space situated in an old school building. We have opened a non-profit exhibition space within our studio building. Our mission is to provide a platform for emerging artists to showcase their work. Every month we have an exhibition opening where artists come together and hang out.
