Lilian Margulis

I am a visual artist. Born in Buenos Aires. I graduated from the National School of Ceramics. Graduated from the National School of Fine Arts "Prilidiano Pueyrredón" with a specialty in Sculpture. I attended the set design workshop at the Instituto Superior del Teatro Colón for 3 years.

I dedicated myself to glass exclusively as a language in art, sculpture, objects, textile and graphic work for more than 20 years.

I followed up on my work with Carla Rey for 6 years.

I am part of the Centro de Edicion Lithography workshop directed by Natalia Giacchetta.

I have been part of the Maquina de Regar group for 3 years. Directed by Lucia Kuschnir.

In my studio, I teach Classic and Contemporary Mosaic and Vitrofusion and everything related to the arts of glass.

I have taken several field trips: Pilchuck Glass School in Stanwood, near Seattle.

Glass Paste with Saman Kalantari in Silvia Levenson's workshop in Italy.

Glass Paste Techniques with Alicia Lomne at Bullseye Glass in Portland.

First Prize in Glass Sculpture at the Municipal Glass Room in Berazategui.

Trasluz (Traces - 09/2021)

The textile, the weft, the trauma, childhood memories of fabrics and seams.

Encounters with the plots that produce infinite pleasure; the one and a thousand ways in which the lines intersect and link. Sometimes cradled and other times drowned, its lights and its closed areas.

Here they remind me of the transparency of the stained glass windows.

Cluster of lines, dark spaces, without light, without air, without a minimum place to breathe; some covered, others hidden, others transparent.

At the moment of realization, the gesture is one of great freedom, reiterating, repeating, the pulse, the feeling, the act, the performative, the rubric, saying, saying again, affirming and downloading until there is no more to say.

It may not be understood, it is my language.

Because they are like layers, stories, stages that I go through, experiences, experiences that grow in me.
