Roumayne (1981) is a pharmacist and founded Learning From Art in 2018.

Her love for the arts only developed at an older age. “I used to visit a museum at most once a year. Art played no role during my childhood and only started being part of my life in a later stage in my life when I had been working as a pharmacist for a few years already. Art has given me wonderful insights, "things" that you don't learn in college ... and the last years it became my mission to let everyone experience that you can learn not only about art, but also from art. ”

And then she fell in love with Art Based Learning (ABL). A wonderful method developed by Dr. Jeroen Lutters, lecturer in art and cultural education at ArtEZ Institute of the Arts in Arnhem. Roumayne has completely immersed herself in theory and practice and decided that it was time for a carreer switch.

In aflevering #1 van de Kunst Verbindt Podcast vertelt Roumayne uitgebreid in een interview door Dide Vonk over haar overstap van apotheker naar creatief ondernemer. Luister de aflevering hier >>>

Art based learning laat je op een andere manier naar kunst kijken. Je hoeft absoluut geen kennis van kunst te hebben. Je gaat met een hele persoonlijke vraag het museum in en zoekt heel intuitief naar een kunstwerk. Of het kunstwerk kiest jou! Vervolgens ga je heel goed naar het kunstwerk kijken en zul je merken dat je fantasie aan het werk gaat wat leidt tot prachtige inzichten. En wellicht vind je ook een antwoord op jouw persoonlijke vraag! 

“A very valuable way to pause in these busy times and really take some time for yourself. I wish everyone, even if it is only once in your life, to have such a beautiful experience with a work of art and to go home with an insight, answer and unforgettable experience. Your museum visits will never be the same again and I guide entrepreneurs & teams to enjoy the process of Art Based Learning ”

In June 2018, she quit her job in the pharmaceutical industry after 12 years to work full-time with Learn From Art. We can learn so much from art: About ourselves, about each other, about the society we live in and the organizations where we work. She hopes to inspire many more people and to introduce them to art. Offline & Online.

"It is never to late to learn from art!
