Bio:
Mari Simmulson (1911–2000) was one of the most prominent designers at Upsala Ekeby in the mid-20th century. She is particularly renowned for her decorative wall plaques and sculptural works, characterised by bold colours, graphic compositions, and stylised natural forms. Her production from the 1950s and 1960s reflects the modernist aesthetics of the period and is highly sought after by collectors today.
