The Art Of Survival - With Maurice Blik

Once Lost Now Proud

I had the pleasure of speaking with World-Renowned Sculptor and holocaust survivor Maurice Blik. We talk about his time at Bergen-Belsen concentration camp, but then we get into his remarkable life journey that followed through to today, including how art has played an integral role throughout all stages of his life.

His words and experiences are lessons of someone with fearless determination. What is very clear is that his time, loss, and experience in Bergen-Belsen has not defined him. He is a true survivor and continues to educate and create sculpture with purpose, which you can see in his work or when you read his book (Art of Survival). His sculpture shows strength and courage, and quite clearly, so does the maker.

Maurice Blik's sculptures are not only a celebration of life but also an everlasting legacy that will carry his and his family's story for future generations to come.
