Liliane will speak about her work with language and in particular about 'Power Game', her socio-political performance, which will be at the Zabludowicz Collection on the 19th of April (http://www.zabludowiczcollection.com/london/events/liliane-lijn-power-game). She will also discuss her ongoing projects 'Solar Hills' and 'Stardust Ruins', both developed from her ACE/ NASA, Leonardo Network funded residency at the Space Sciences Laboratory at the University of California, Berkeley.

Liliane Lijn's art is primarily concerned with light in its relation to matter. David Bohm, the Birkbeck physicist (1917-1992) described matter as 'frozen or condensed light' and saw the world of matter and the experience of consciousness as complementary aspects of a more fundamental process he called the implicate order. He wrote " Light, simply defined as anything traveling at the speed of light, contained all information.' Lijn believes that as an artist, she explores the outside world with one eye and the inner with another, world and self, matter and consciousness. Her work is both mathematical in its use of geometric forms while simultaneously involving archetypes and a continuing obsession with time and memory.
