Heleliis Hõim

Overview

Heleliis Hõim (born 1987) is an interdisciplinary artist who works across multiple media. She has carried out several collaborative projects and solo exhibitions in Estonia, and has furthered her studies in the Contemporary Art master’s program at the Estonian Academy of Arts, the Art Academy of Latvia, and at the Belle di Arti de Milano University in Italy. She has also participated in international group exhibitions in England, Germany, Cyprus, Ukraine, the Seychelles, and Mauritius.

The artist’s main source of inspiration lies in mysteries — particularly the chaotic essence of nature and humanity. Heleliis’ work is characterized by vibrant use of color and a distinctive expressiveness, often incorporating elements of organic forms. In her painting practice, she primarily employs movement and dynamism. Notable solo exhibitions include “When the Sun Rises” at Artrovert Gallery (2024) and “The Martian Chronicles” at ARS Project Space (2022), where she presented an anthropological exploration of a human who has left the borrowed environment of Mars.
