This is quite a master of ethereal paintings and getting magic out of colours. One of The Ode To's Co-Founder (Helena) got to know Marika Vaccino Andersson when they both worked at & Other Stories. Marika is a graphic designer, but painting is often present in her work and her hand has touched many of & Other Stories' artistic packaging designs and photo shoots. 

She has a number of artists in her family and so has always been surrounded by artistry. She studied art for two years, did a shift to psychology and then ended up graduating in graphic design from Beckman's School of Design in Stockholm. 

Marika Vaccino Andersson is based in Stockholm and has a studio overlooking the stark Swedish nature with pine trees and shifting skies, which is reflected in her motifs. Her series 'Cloud Studies' is exclusively made for The Ode To.

The Ode To is an online gallery and an effortless way of discovering contemporary art by emerging artists. We careful collect and create limited and one-of-a-kind artworks to reasonable prices, so that you can get something truly special that few others have. 

The Ode To means tribute - our tribute is to great artistry and design, and not the least to female artistry. We mainly work with female creatives to counterweight the imbalance that exists also within the design and art world. 

The Ode To launched in Spring 2018 by friends Helena Carlberg and Anna Lukins in Stockholm, Sweden.
