Natalia Matsola is a contemporary visual artist based in Scotland, UK.
From an early age, Natalia was drawn to art and began studying Fine Arts in 2018 at the Art Academy. She found inspiration in the works of artists such as Vincent van Gogh, Edvard Munch, Claude Monet, Piet Mondrian and Mark Rothko, whose approaches to colour, emotion and composition influenced the development of her artistic voice. Alongside her academic practice, she independently studied illustration and began working as a children’s book illustrator while also participating in exhibitions as an abstract artist.

Natalia completed her Bachelor’s degree in 2022. Later that year, she moved abroad and, for nearly two years, focused primarily on illustrating children’s books while adapting to several changes of residence, which made painting more challenging.

In 2024, Natalia returned to painting and presented her first solo exhibition in Edinburgh ''After Silence''. This was followed by the collection ''New Beginning''. In 2026, she began developing the ongoing series ''Where Is My Home?'' a body of work reflecting on personal experience, displacement, human connection and the idea of home as something deeper than a physical place.

Through abstract forms, texture and atmosphere, Natalia’s work explores emotional landscapes, memory, belonging and the quiet relationship between people and the spaces they inhabit.
