about me 

My name is Jacques, 21 years old, born and raised in Belgium by an American mom and French dad.  

I am currently a first year student at the Gerrit Rietveld Academie in Amsterdam. The school has a focus on the broader "fine arts" with a wide range of workshops that allow a true exploration in material and concept. Before that I was a fashion design student at Helmo Mode based in Liege. Helmo is a fashion design school that focuses on the technical side of fashion : pattern drafting; grading; industry-quality sewing and tailoring.
