Marjolein Blom (b.1984, Dordrecht) is a visual artist who lives and works in Amsterdam (NL). She studied photography (BA) at the Fotoacademie, Amsterdam. In 2018/2019 she took part in the ISSP Masterclass with Clare Strand and Gordon McDonald.
Her work results from a fascination for scientific theories about the inner workings of our universe - like those of quantum physics and special relativity - and the human desire to unravel the deeper layers of existence through science.
Chance, curiosity and humour are important characteristics in her artistic process, which leads her to explore the tension between scientific theories and the reality of our everyday lives.
Over the past years, her work has been exhibited in different national and international shows including Art Rotterdam, Unseen, Fotomuseum Den Haag, Fotografia Europea and Backlight Fotofestival.
