Hilma af Klint was a Swedish artist and mystic whose paintings were among the first in Western abstract art. Her work ‘Wheat and Wormwood’ emerged from her spiritual pursuits, closely tied to Theosophy and anthroposophy. Created in the early 20th century, it reflects her interest in the connection between the natural world and spiritual realms. Klint’s art gained recognition posthumously, challenging traditional narratives of art history and highlighting the role of spirituality in abstraction.
