Salóme Hollanders (b. 1996) is a designer and visual artist based in Reykjavík. She graduated with a BA degree in Product Design from the Iceland University of the Arts in 2022. Through her practice, Salóme challenges herself both as an artist and a designer, exploring the in between spaces where fine arts and design collide.

Working across mediums such as product design, installation, sculpture, and painting, she often investigates contrasts, geometry and systems alongside unpredictable and organic forms. Her practice explores and challenges materials, mixing opposites, placing them in environments that may seem foreign to them, with an emphasis on unexpected outcomes.

In her recent work, Salóme has taken on the role of the landscape painter, exploring nature through its purest form of shapes and colors. Her approach reflects an ongoing dialogue between control and unpredictability, structure and organic form.

Salóme has participated in exhibitions in Iceland and abroad, including a solo exhibition at the Akureyri Art Museum in 2024.
