FEMININITY & CONNECTION TO NATURE

Deeply touched by the nature around me and inspired by the landscape of my soul, I create magical works of art through linocut printing.

With this technique I create expressive goddesses (and soon also gods ;) who take us on a journey to our own nature and remind us of our spiritual connection to Mother Earth.

art.from.ilkas.heart is a small art studio that I opened in 2018. Each linocut print is designed, hand carved, inked and printed by me directly in my studio.

Thank you for visiting – I hope my work touches and inspires you!

The "Goddess of Inner Wisdom" reminds me again and again to trust my intuition, to pause and to perceive myself in the moment. Like a small gate into my inner self.

For Christmas I gave myself Ilka's goddess of fertility. Her art touches the heart and soul, I feel how much heart and wisdom is in her art. Thank you very much, dear Ilka, for your work!

"The Praying Goddess - she supports me in expressing gratitude and immersing myself in silence. She reminds me how to connect more deeply with the great mystery and serve life."
