About the artist & musicians:

Lavia Lin is a Berlin-based abstract painter and live painting performance artist from Shanghai, China. She came to Berlin in 2014 to pursue her studies in the arts, and has been working as a freelance artist and arts & cultural manager since 2021. Lavia’s art can be described as atmospheric abstract art, that are often blue-toned and inspired by music.

Growing in the family-owned Bar House of Blues & Jazz in Shanghai, her sensitive ears have been beautifully toned up by the musical surroundings. Music, especially jazz became Lavia’s subject and inspiration. Without former musical training, she’s able to perceive the music emotionally without technical interpretation. Since 2017, she has started an ongoing project “Jazz paintings” dedicated to some of the jazz standards she enjoys. She has performed and collaborated with international musicians in which she paints during their live concerts and put colours to their music.
