Fransje Gimbrère is a multidisciplinary designer, born and raised in Tilburg, the textile city of The Netherlands, and graduated in 2017 from the Man & Identity department at the Design Academy in Eindhoven. She observes and explores the world with profound critical thinking and an intuitive interest for the aesthetics of shape, color, image and material. This ability to monitor draws her into questioning the world as it is. With her awareness of aesthetic quality, use of a variety of materials and a variety of mediums, Fransje has produced a multidisciplinary range of work. Her concepts and designs often contain contradictory elements and a new playfull approach, resulting in a little idiosyncrasy or raw edge in every one of them.

In 2017 I created DotPigeon, an artistic project that uses Instagram as a platform. Inspired by pop culture, politics, icons and trends of the moment, the idea behind my artworks remains the same: to twist images in order to create simple and comprehensible messages executed in a clean and visually satisfying way. The account reaches more than 40 thousand people and my works have been published by several online magazines, Instagram pages and newspapers (Forbes, ItsNiceThat, Fubiz, Popmyeyes, UrbanContest, Freeda, Designyoutrust, Designtaxi, Cnn, Darlin Magazine, Collater.al, Il Messaggero, Trendland, Picame Mag and many others).
