Vacature Kringloopwinkel WEB: Productdesigner
Kringloopcentrum WEB is een tewerkstellingsinitiatief van S.W. WEB, een sociale werkplaats gericht op het aanbieden van een duurzame tewerkstelling voor langdurig werkzoekenden.
Door het inzamelen, sorteren, herstellen (electro) en terug verkopen van herbruikbare goederen streeft ze zo een belangrijke milieu- en sociale doelstelling na.
WEB start een samenwerking met de MAD faculty (onderzoeksgroep Art|Object & Design) voor de opstart van dit atelier.
Ze willen op continue basis nieuwe productengamma’s uitwerken die de klassieke herstellingen van binnenkomende goederen overstijgen.
Voor de verdere uitbouw van onze activiteiten hebben zij vacatures voor:
Deeltijdse of freelance medewerker Recyclage Atelier voor 12 maanden
Deeltijdse of freelance productdesigner voor bepaalde duur
Beide vacatures zijn eventueel combineerbaar tot een voltijdse functie.

Masterprojects Object & Jewellery
Right from the beginning, the teaching staff of the Masterclass Object & Jewellery and the Masterstudio Art/Object & Design had the feeling that it would be an important academic year with strong masterprojects. The report of the Wanatoe-jury agreed upon this intuitive feeling: the masterclass was regarded as the most interesting and most research-based studio, one of the best in Flanders at the moment.
Jill Ryckaert, with her jewellery evolving out of a subjective interpretation of ‘the tree of life’ from Darwin, is granted the Wanatoe-price and is nominated for the Marzee International Graduation Show.
