“The only difference between a museum and the outside world is PERCEPTION.”

Tibor “TeaBee” Sander is an artist and conceptual designer based in the Netherlands. His practice explores the tension between function and fantasy through alienating forms and spatial thinking. Working across sculpture, spatial interventions, wearable forms and moving image, he creates tactile and atmospheric scenes that question familiarity and perception. Rather than offering clear answers, his work invites reflection through experience.

My work plays with aesthetic friction: it can be ELEGANT, absurd, or unsettling, but always aims to intrigue.
