about

At Marit Studio, we're driven by a profound passion for art and its ability to transform spaces and souls. Founded by artist Marit Bakkan, our mission is rooted in the belief that art has the power to inspire, evoke emotion, and elevate any environment.

Marit's journey as an artist is deeply intertwined with her personal experiences and cultural influences. Born and raised in Norway, Marit's artistic sensibilities were shaped by her Scandinavian roots, where she developed a deep appreciation for simplicity, nature, and craftsmanship. Upon relocating to Los Angeles, she found herself immersed in a vibrant tapestry of culture and creativity, igniting new perspectives and inspirations.

One of the most profound influences on Marit's artistic journey has been her love for Japanese art and culture. Drawn to the timeless elegance and tranquility of Japanese aesthetics, Marit found solace and inspiration in the beauty of traditional Sumi-ink and Nihonga paintings, as well as the harmonious balance of nature and art.

It is these experiences, anecdotes, and insights that have shaped Marit's artistic identity and distinctive style. Each piece at Marit Studio is a reflection of her journey, infused with a sense of serenity, beauty, and authenticity. With a focus on quality craftsmanship and timeless design, we invite you to explore our curated selection and find the perfect piece to complement your unique style.

Thank you for joining us on this creative journey. Together, let's transform spaces and enrich lives with the power of art.
