Rinke Baaima (born 1955), a painter and sculptor from Vlaardingen, combines his background in structural engineering with a profound artistic vision.
He uses the theoretical stresses and forces in concrete structures as a metaphor for the pressures people experience in daily life, viewed not from the perspective of the structure itself, but through the lens of events. His works, ranging from traditional sculpture to computer-modelled sculptures, are milled with precision by an ABB robot and reinforced with Acrylic One and glass fibre. In his paintings, he also incorporates AR virtual images, offering a unique 3D experience
