A Playful
Artistic Twist
on Historic Events,
Science Topics and Economic Theories
At secondary school, did your mind also wonder off during History class because
your imagination was more colourfull than
the dull grey text, unimaginary images,
and monotone voice of your teacher?
Experiencing how cyclical live is
and how the fast majority of us are extremely curious,
I painfully realised what a waste of potential those History classes were.
Our minds need to be tempted,
curiousity sparked, and interest piqued.
This made me decide to start
rhino flow
Bespoke, thought-provoking, relatable art
around Historic Events, Science Topics
and Economic Theories
for you, the fresh-minded generation,
preserving our knowledge to craft our future.
Bio
I am reinier
(a.k.a. rhino)
Blessed growing up near the coast of the Netherlands in a warm family and
getting formed by a solid group of friends
with the liberties of 90ties,
my curiousity had free game.
In the early 2000s,
I realised I had a passion for flowing water
and saw that the world is my playground.
I found a way to release this passion abroad
by developing sustainable food production facilities.
First on the Arabian Peninsula
in the Sultanate of Oman,
from their in Almeria, Spain.
Temporarily back in the Netherlands
getting greener thumbs,
making the big jump to
Port Augusta, South Australia.
In typical Australian style,
here I received my nickname rhino
from my football mate Lenny.
And although I was a decent defender,
it was just easier to remember and
shout on the pitch (I hope).
Australia widely opened the doors to experience live in Qatar, London, Portugal, South-East & North-West USA, and nowadays Norway.
Experiencing all these different cultures
and making friends
with their own and new perspectives on live,
opened my eyes to see my own bubble and
hear my own echo-chamber.
It also made me realise how cyclical life cycles are,
within the flora and fauna world and
also for us humans.
Learning along the way that
a Picture says more than a 1,000 Words
and that our memory responses well to
CIA (Couple-Imagine-Associate),
I started to play with the idea of creating Art
that makes it easier to remember
Historic Events, Science Topics,
and Economics Theories,
in a Fun, Relatable and Thought-Provoking Way.
This became the Inception of:
