I'm Rowena Rutten, a 22 year old textile student at the Art Academy in Maastricht. From september until november of last year I did an internship with Nelly Rodi, a trend agency in Paris. At the moment I'm graduating.
As a textile designer I like to see textile as a 3d material and a material with no limits.
