Gitte Maria Möller is an illustrator based in Cape Town, South Africa. She received her BA in Fine Art from the Michaelis School of Fine Art in 2015. Drawing on many different fields such as ancient mythology, religious manuscripts and iconography, prayer paintings, manga, and early video games, Gitte’s works are loaded with heavy symbolism and archetypes. We also witness scenes in her work that seem almost straight out of medieval times.
We see the inspirations of the gothic period in most of the artist’s aesthetics. Detailed lines have a major place in the works of the artist, especially in the sense of gothic architecture and painting. The artist, who enjoys working with mixed media, has both digital and oil painting works. Talking about her future plans to It’s Nice That, Gitte Maria Möller says: “I don’t have any big plans for the rest of the year (yet), but I am hoping to do a residency sometime soon. At the moment I’m busy working on a handful of oil on panel paintings, and will be helping another artist put a show up next month.”
