Salóme Hollanders (b. 1996) is a visual artist and designer based in Reykjavík. She completed preparatory studies at the Reykjavík School of Visual Arts before earning a BA degree in Product Design from the Iceland University of the Arts in the spring of 2022. Since then, she has worked independently while also teaching and overseeing the digital fabrication workshop at the Iceland University of the Arts. Through her practice, Salóme engages with the boundaries between visual art and design, exploring the in-between spaces where the two fields collide. She works across a variety of mediums, including product design, painting, sculpture, and installation. Salóme explores contrasts of geometry and structure combined with the poetic and enigmatic, weaving her own symbolism into the narratives of her works.
Salóme has exhibited her work both in Iceland and internationally. She has participated in group exhibitions and held solo exhibitions of her work, at the Akureyri Art Museum and at HERMA amongst other spaces. She has exhibited multiple times at DesignMarch, shown her work at Dutch Design Week and at Sepikoja Gallery in Tallinn.
