Born in Brazil, Deusa Blümke holds an Master of Fine Arts from LASALLE College, and has a degree in Business. She has participated in many art classes in Singapore and abroad. Blümke's works are mainly paintings that explore relationships, form, expressive lines, manipulation of materials, and colour. 

She has exhibited her works in various fairs, open calls, and exhibitions in Singapore and abroad, including Dubai in 2013, IEAA, and the inaugural Brazilian Cultural Centre at the Brazilian Embassy. She has participated in "Artprize7", USA-Michigan (2015), "In (significant)" group show at the Objectifs Gallery, exhibitions with INSTINCT Collective in Singapore, and was invited by Group "TAV" to participate in their Traveling "Portraiture" shows in Singapore, Thailand and New Zealand (September 2018 to March 2019). In 2020, she served as the painting teacher and plan creator of the German International School (GESS) after-school painting program. Blümke is often inspired by material manipulation and the unconscious mind.


Artwork Statement

My work is an ongoing research on painting as material, an investigation of surface, transparency, colour and forms of layering. An exploration of how a painting can be created in a moment of time where the mind and body immediately respond to encounters. These painterly investigations are not only manifested through the materiality of the paint but are also the result of a conscious and unconscious relationship between my body and my mind. They express an exploration of my inner landscape and deal with the world in flux as I am experiencing it at that moment and my attempt to bridge this experience with the viewer.
