Doris Bloom
Doris Bloom is one of the most remarkable Danish visual artists of her generation. Born and raised in South Africa and educated at Johannesburg College of Art, Bloom immigrated to Denmark in 1976 and continued her studies at The Royal Danish Academy of Fine Arts. Bloom’s culturally mixed background is clearly reflected in her works and offers a unique mix of African and European heritage, often with personal touch or even participation. Bloom’s work covers painting, graphic art, photography, video art and performance.
