Get to know Hilma af Klint—the first abstract artist in the world—and discover a whole new universe brimming with ideas

As an introduction to the artist Hilma af Klint, this book guides children through her close connection to the natural world and all its wondrous life-forms alongside stunning reproductions of her artworks. Inside, children are encouraged to find their own inspiration in nature, and the book offers multiple opportunities: Readers can experiment with spirographs where science and art meet, delve into a dreamland with a DIY dream machine, marvel at the beauty of nature in botanical flower pressings, and get creative with bubble paintings.
