For her finals, Rojin uses architectural objects as metaphors. She explains: “For inspiration, I look at objects like drawers, tables, or closets. They can contain feelings or memories. But they can also be empty. And we can fill them ourselves with our own creations. I find it fascinating that we can recreate our memories. We can take material from the past and create a totally different story. And believe it. I think it can be used as a healing process.”
Good experiences at AKI
Rojin chose AKI ArtEZ because she met with a lot of former students in Enschede who spoke highly of the academy. “Everyone I met, had a lot to say about AKI. When I went to visit the academy, I thought it was an inspiring space. The idea of having your own studio was very fascinating. And I learned that there are well-known artists who teach here.”
The next step
When Rojin is asked what the next step is after graduation, her answer is: “I want to create or help create a program of some kind that helps people cope with life. That’s something important to me.”
