About Sjana
From the mystical atmosphere of Iceland, Sjana has her roots set firmly into the deep energetic currents that flow through the air and captivating landscape there, all of which is reflected in her art.
Sjana’s work is both therapeutic and soulful. She expresses dreams, beauty and hope and tackles the, sometimes, cold truths of reality and the taunting nightmares that go along with it.
Her art is grounded, energetic and full of life, showcasing her deep thinking and spiritual understanding as well as being innocent and pure at times, allowing her inner child to be brought out onto the canvas. While a lot of Sjana’s work is deep and even philosophical at times, she also shows that she doesn’t take herself too seriously when showcasing her sense of humour and contagious joy for the simpler things in life.
Sjana seeks inspiration from deep pain and personal experiences as well as her unhinged hopes and dreams, and so her art offers insight into the dark corners of her mind and sheds light on important subjects as well as her positive outlook on life. Some paintings are meant to provoke and get people’s minds running and thinking while others are meant to give you peace and fulfilment, and offer a bit of escapism.
Sjana adjusts to the atmosphere and mood she’s in and creates according to the time and space she’s in, and that is what makes every art piece so unique, each with its own life and story to tell.
