Maria Ruoti

Maria Ruoti is a visual artist who creates art with a deeper meaning. She works out of her atelier in Espoo, Finland. Her pieces are created with oil and acryl paints. The foundation of her art stems from her educational background in figurative art studies, theology and law school.These help to combine creativity, philosophy and scientific research. Maria's pieces are extraordinary works of art, which contain a unique philosophical context. Each piece is coupled with a profound story explaining the roots of the piece. Origins of these pieces come from the sacredness of nature which is present in the surrounding old forest next to her atelier. Her inspirations spark from multiple layers of life. Her paintings relay a mystical transcendental reality that is part of everyday life, but not visible to all. Maria's paintings capture the diversity of life to the fullest extent. From moments of darkness, despair and sorrow to longing, happiness, joy and love. These moments may be short, but the lessons they provide are plenty. Her pieces of art express where things expressible with words end, and unknown begins. They play, explore and create understanding for the viewer that we are part of a bigger entity.
