Product description
Hilma af Klint was exploring the boundaries of spiritual abstraction years before the world recognized the movement as a formal art style. This print, titled “What a Human Being Is” from 1910, centers on a delicate pink heart enclosed within a large circular aura.
About Hilma af Klint
Hilma af Klint’s large spiritual paintings, made from 1906 onwards, predate many famous abstract works. Af Klint’s symbols, spirals and soft colours suit calm, contemporary rooms. Abstract art uses colour, shape and line instead of recognisable subjects. The original image dates from 1910.
Styling this Hilma af Klint print
Blue, yellow and pink tones give this Hilma af Klint print a vibrant character that holds a room. Choose 24×36″ to make “What a Human Being Is” the focal point of a living room, or 11×14″ to 16×20″ for a bedside or hallway wall. The blue, yellow and pink palette of “What a Human Being Is” pairs naturally with white walls, navy or denim textiles and pale oak; finish it with a black or antique-gold frame. For a gallery wall, pair “What a Human Being Is” with two or three smaller prints, spaced 2–3 inches (5–8 cm) apart.
