For a considerable time now Ruudt Peters has been exploring the feminine subconscious in the male (the ANIMA) as a guiding principle for his design. Over the past year he has been drawing blind, in order to achieve more freedom in his thinking.  These drawings give expression to an unknown terrain in his visual language. Peters can not direct them. The principle in them is, the less you control the design, the more freedom and room in the ultimate product.  As a continuation of this technique, Ruudt Peters has been drawing with wax underwater. This action generates an unfamiliar language.  It is movement that
solidifies what arises from the unconscious.  A fluid line is caught in coagulated form. This process produces a totally different sort of design with regard to freedom, thought and expression.  The works are gracile, delicate and fragile. Made in silver, aluminium and gold.
