If you correct your hidden deeds, subsequently Allāh will correct your outward deeds.

Shaykh ul-Islām Ibn Taymiyyah, al-Fatāwa (3/277)

Emma Lindström - Cosmic Compositions 

26-year-old painter Emma Lindström creates colorful swirls of awesomeness using a combination of acrylic and spraypaint. Though the artist is from Sweden, her work feels as though it came from an entirely different galaxy. Her paintings are nothing short of celestial — though the colors change piece to piece, she maintains the same galactic visuals that transcends our Earthly imaginations.

When it all comes down to it, my main goal is obviously to evoke some kind of emotion. Hopefully you can find something in my work that speaks to your inner self and the light that resides there…no matter what emotion you might get, the important thing is just that you are feeling something.  

For more of Lindström’s work, follow her on Instagram and visit her official website.

“He will forgive for you your sins and admit you to gardens beneath which rivers flow and pleasant dwellings in gardens of perpetual residence. That is the great attainment.” [61/12]
