Hilma af Klint's paintings are not an intellectual exercise in abstraction, they are symbolic works encoded with specific spiritual messages.

What are the spiritual messages encoded in her artworks? Can they be deciphered? Was Hilma part of a Rosicrucian Order?

We will also make an in depth exploration of Hilma's most infamous series: The Ten Largest. What is it about The Ten Largest which makes it a work of genius? And how does Hilma tell the story of the 'life of the soul' through it?
