Peter Penders-Cruz lives and works in Hasselt (B). He studied monumental painting at the PXL-MAD School of Arts. After graduating, he became an active member of the artist duo Cruz & Gomez, with whom he realized several collaborative projects. At the same time, he founded his own interior and decoration company, designing a wide range of custom-made artworks for architects, hotels, businesses, and private clients. This hands-on experience gave him a broad knowledge of modern materials and traditional craft techniques. In doing so, he laid the foundation for a new artistic medium, marking the next step as a solo artist.
