Organisatie
Studio T.VDB is the creative studio, founded by the Belgian transdisciplinary artist and fashion designer Tom Van der Borght.
Tom Van der Borght is internationally renowned for his non-conformist approach, which challenges and breaks through rules and conventions, blurring the boundaries between fashion, performance, and art. His work is highly conceptual, in which breaking through dominant values and norms is central. The work is characterized by a traditional approach and the development of sustainable innovations.
Tom Van der Borght works as an independent artist, on the boundaries of fashion, textiles, graphics, video, performance, scenography, and visual arts. In addition to developing autonomous work in the form of collections, artistic research, performance and visual arts, Studio T.VDB works on commission for a wide range of partners and creative projects (Mercedes-Benz, Lille3000, Baccarat, Chanel, Le19M, Blanca Li, Miet Warlop, Alexander Vantournhout, ...).
We are currently looking for a fashion projects intern to start in August 2024 for a minimal period of 4 months.
Please note that this is an unpaid internship, and a school contract is required.
