Lilliana Didovic & Chinoros Roongsakul @ Smile Gallery

Sparkling City and Soft Abstractions – The Art of Lilliana Didovic and Chinoros Roongsakul curated by Dr. Debra Miller is a visual delight with vibrant color, unusual materials and fresh ideas. As a celebration of the second anniversary of Ken Tutjamnong’s restaurant and gallery, Smile, Dr. Deb has created a wonderland experience combining the abstract expressionist nature shapes of Roongsakul and the glamour, style and intensity of Didovic’s landscapes and logos. Ken considers both artists to be his best friends and brought them together from across the globe making Philly the nexus of this collision of art and love; Didovic is from Sarajevo and Roogsakul is an art professor from Bangkok.

Artist Lilliana Didiovic has incorporated, at the urging of Dr. Debbie, Swarovsky crystals into the skylines of famous Philly landmarks, applying hundreds and hundreds one at a time. The effect is luscious, drawing on a craving for bling, nostalgia and unique style.

The Spring evening was perfect for an art crawl, DoN brought Katy the ArT DoG and her pal Doofie, the St. Bernard/Chihuahua mix along for the walk. The dogs enjoyed hanging out on hip 22nd Street – with Smile, TwentyTwo, Good Karma and hip boutiques the broad avenue has lots to offer.
