Lianna Basdeo
Lianna Basdeo

female Women-owned

Lianna’s creative practice is focused on printmaking with a background in Fashion Print Design. Her practice incorporates drawing, mixing color combinations, and layering different techniques. Lianna explores drawing from still life, mark-making, and collaging. She connects the printmaking process with meditative and prayerful practices that provide space to slow down and nurture the art of noticing the beauty of nature and everyday life. The repetitive and hands-on process of carving a print block allows her to be deliberate with each mark and learn patience in the creative process.
Lianna has been integrating the creative arts with faith as a means of fostering connection within communities and nurturing spirituality for the past 2 years. Lianna runs workshops that involve creative processes such as printmaking, pottery, and painting. These workshops have encouraged people to explore new creative skills and foster deeper connections with one another. Lianna has delivered over 25 workshops that have reached more than 1, 000 people of all ages and backgrounds, from toddlers to seniors. The workshops Lianna offers are either arts-focused or combine arts with faith.
