Rolina Elsje Blok

Rolina Blok is a young East London based artist. She originates from The Hague, but is also half Romanian and lived in Romania for seven years, prior to moving to the U.K.

Blok’s practice has changed a lot over the years she spent at the Cass.  Coming from studying art in a post-communist environment Blok had to break the set boundaries yet still make use of all the knowledge and technique acquired from the art/education system in Romania. After breaking these boundaries and learning about a contemporary environment she discovered the techniques and subject matter she is currently working with.

Blok works mainly through the methods of screen-printing and performance art.  Her performances and prints show her perception of intimacy through Muay Thai.


Exhibiting from the fragile age of ten, Blok has been actively involved in the art world and wishes to continue to explore and develop her practice as an artist and Nak Muay.
