Liliane Blom Art Studio
Sofa Stories was so much fun!
Join me, Liliane Blom, Resident Artist for Montgomery County, as we continue our journey of color and light.
The next step is voting for one of the 5 sketches that came from the many ideas shared by the wonderful visitors to my pop-up living room. Conversations over coffee and tea, conversation profound and cathartic, and so many beautiful thoughts and ideas for the community mural to come.
Here is the link: https://pollunit.com/polls/wheatonmural
Go rate the sketch ideas. These are still rough, but you should be able to rank them from one to five stars.
In October, I invite you to come paint with me and the community that calls Wheaton home, or works here, or just loves it!
Stay tuned for dates and times!
Join me!
DC Art Bank
I am honored to have one of my pieces added to Washington DC's Permanent Collection!
"Ist das Leben unter der Sonne nicht bloß ein Traum? Is life under the sun not just a dream?
The title is based on a line from the poem Song of Childhood by Peter Handke and is part of my Dreamtime series.
Signal Boxes
I am thankful to be among the artists chosen by the Bethesda Urban Partnership for this great public art project and to have my artwork featured on one of the 15 signal boxes in downtown Bethesda. It's a fantastic opportunity to spread joy and bring art to the community!
I propose organizing a scavenger hunt from box to box—here a link to the map of the boxes!
La Baldi Artist Residency, Montegiovi
I would urge my art peeps to take a look at the application for the La Baldi/Cultivate Residency. It was a fantastic experience for me.
About Liliane
Liliane Blom is an installation artist as well as a classically trained painter and award winning photographer whose distinct style mixes her love of both media into a new one. She calls her fusion of painting and photography digital painting. Her pieces printed on canvas or watercolor paper are later enhanced with oils/pastels and often with gold or silver leaf. Based in Rockville Maryland of French/Norwegian extraction she is a frequent exhibitor in the Washington region.
Liliane Blom’s installation art is interactive and immersive and often environmental in scope. They are multi-sensory experiences, that engage the viewer with sound/touch and light. Playful, they unapologetically appeal to our sense of wonder.
Personal and poetic, rhythmic and layered, her work merges the world of sound and vision – the internal with the external. It focuses on borderlines. Those mostly invisible boundaries that separate me from you, us from them, reality from fantasy, childhood from adulthood, life from death and humans from the rest of the natural world.
