Lotta Hellström

Nature's Diversity Designed by Lotta Hellström

Lotta Hellström explores painting in oil and acrylic on canvas, where nature and its relationship to humans are central motifs. Her art carries a freedom from exact depiction, creating room for interpretation and creative exploration.

In the landscapes that Lotta creates, the small scale of man becomes clear. By capturing moments of vast landscapes, she conveys a sense of humility in the face of nature's grandeur. The Scandinavian color permeates her work, where open landscapes still carry a wilderness atmosphere and stillness.

Sometimes the motifs can be perceived as abstract if the viewer allows the eye to reposition itself. The colors meet in a sensitive resolution, which creates an artistic dialogue between realism and abstraction. Lotta Hellström captures the diversity of nature and invites the viewer to explore and reflect on the beauty and interaction between man and nature.
