About the artist

Maaria Treima

My work is a way for me to learn. As a child I would observe the world around me and if there was something that I found very interesting, I would draw it. This gave me the chance to really analyse the subject and understand it better. When thoughts and ideas are running around in my head, depicting it helps me desipher them. When I have dreams or fantasies, painting about it makes them come alive during that process. I use my art to learn about the world within and outside of myself.
