The paintings of late Macedonian artist Ljiljana Blazevska are a stunning new discovery for us, thanks to the painter’s beautiful exhibition at 15 Orient in Brooklyn, running until 14 March.
This fantastical scene is unashamedly painterly and gorgeously rendered in vivid colours. Deliciously unexpected treats for the eyes emerge all across the canvas.
