Liliane Tomasko @ Blain Southern

Liliane Tomasko presents new paintings for her first exhibition called A dream of. This exhibition title features within the titles of all but one of the works in the show – such as a dream of: Violence Redefined, a dream of: Terrible Beauty and a dream of: Rapture Unleashed. The titles are poetic interpretations of her own dreams. Rather than describe a dream narrative, Tomasko grasps onto the emotions sparked within the subconscious and carried through to a waking reality, painting the vestiges of the dream state in broad patches and fibrous strands of colour.
