Smultronstället by Björk Hijoort in Helsinki

"Smultronstället," is a painting aimed to invite viewers to an ethereal realm where nature and nostalgia intertwine. The painting is a celebration of the Swedish concept of a "smultronställe" — which translates to describing a hidden gem or a favorite spot, often associated with childhood memories. Painted in 2022 in my forest studio in Koria, Finland
