ARTIST STATEMENT
When in her thirties, Marlise had a Near Death Experience, where she experienced that we are not bodies/persons, but Light, pure consciousness, formless and immortal...She realized that our true nature is love, joy and peace, and that the struggles we are battling with in our lives could be looked at differently, and embraced with peace.

Her paintings come from that open spaciousness and freedom she had recognized as our nature. They often express this play between the Light that we are, and the darkness that we fear.
She loves to paint abstractly, as the viewer is then free to see whatever they do in the painting. Thus, the act of creation takes place as much in the viewer as in the painter – they are same.

In summary, Marlise would love for her art to resonate with the freedom and peace which is fully alive in each one of us, so that the viewer can experience their infinite Being beyond language.
