Lilimarq Art & Design

Lilimarq Art & Design – Profile Description (Refined for NEFA CreativeGround)

Lilimarq Art & Design transforms reclaimed architectural sample materials into geometric sculptures, public art installations, and educational workshops that merge sustainability, design, and human connection. Founded by Venezuelan-born visual artist Liliana Márquez (Lilimarq), the studio embodies the philosophy of REPOP ART — an artistic movement that rescues architectural samples from landfills and gives them a second life through balance, color, and rhythm.

Rooted in the traditions of Venezuelan geometric abstraction and inspired by the Bauhaus principle that form follows function, Lilimarq redefines how art, design, and architecture can coexist. Each creation begins with reclaimed materials — wood, glass, metal, rubber, tile, fabric, and more — evolving into a visual language of sustainability and renewal.

From large-scale public art such as the mosaic “You Belong Here” in Dorchester and “I Make You Feel Better” at Beth Israel Hospital, to creative workshops in libraries, schools, and community spaces, Lilimarq Art & Design invites people of all ages to rethink waste as a source of creative potential.

Based in the Boston area, Lilimarq’s practice bridges cultural heritage, environmental awareness, and modern design innovation — creating artworks that heal, inspire, and remind us that everything transforms.
