PhD. Born 1988 in The Netherlands. Currently based in Tokyo. Ruijters focuses on the phenomenology of intimacy and ethnic identity. Through his art he explores how contemporaneity shifts and modifies these phenomena.

Physicality, materiality, technology, interaction, and the sense of touch are fundamental elements of his practice.
