Maria Slättman is a Stockholm-based Swedish contemporary artist whose work pulses with curiosity and wonder. Her abstract paintings are rooted in a deep fascination with biological phenomena, the intricate patterns of nature, and the colors of the world around her. Her background as a molecular biologist brings a rare scientific eye to the canvas - a perspective that quietly shapes the language of her art. Each painting is born through an intuitive, experimental process: layer upon layer of acrylics and mixed media, building slowly into compositions that breathe with texture, movement, depth, and balance.
