Marcel Baaijens
MSc. M.A.A.E.
Applying creative processes to art, architecture, design, business, communities and life itself are challenges I love. My approach to everything in life is holistic in nature. I studied architecture and dance in the Netherlands and art education at The School of the Art Institute of Chicago, U.S.A. The latter was an experimental degree for artists wishing to become activists or facilitators in the community for social, political and/or personal change. I have worked extensively as an art facilitator with art students with intellectual impairments whose creative processes differ from non-impaired people. I am an artist, documentary maker, researcher, curator and architectural designer. I have operated creative businesses and pioneered experimental art programmes in Chicago and Wellington. I absolutely love working at TLC as a Tutor, Distance Delivery Mentor and the Inclusion Coordinator.
