Born 1969 •

Helena Hötzl Setterström is a contemporary Swedish artist who has been working internationally since 2008. Her art has been showcased in major cities including Budapest, Gothenburg, Los Angeles, Stockholm, London, and Barcelona, as well as in group exhibitions at the Louvre in Paris, and in Chicago, Washington, and New York.

Growing up in the small town of Alingsås, near Gothenburg, Helena's childhood was marked by numerous surgeries and tragic events. Despite these challenges, she chose to channel her pain into something positive, which has been a guiding force in her life. Her optimistic outlook allows her to view the future with hope and brightness.

Helena's work has been described by New York Artz magazine as follows: "Swedish painter and Illustrator HELENA HÖTZL harnesses and manipulates perceptual reality effortlessly with ease. She takes her inspiration from vivid sequences of events or phenomena such as birth, life, sex, and nature interrupted – hence her paintings/illustrations are genuinely intriguing and evoking to all. One may say; it is her unique, sensual, flirty, often humorous 'storylines'— enjoyed and especially favored by her fans worldwide – that started her art to take off. Sensory perception for Hötzl is a spiritual activity; one that leads to a heightened yet subconscious awareness of both culture and human nature. People call it; 'a new kind of realism'—where she combines deeply intuitive layers of text and form to enchant and excite the intellect and the emotion. In her 'poetic' work – with her bold lines, vivid colors, and suggestively figurative elements – she creates this timeless magical quality her collectors have grown to love."
