She was influenced by scientific discoveries of her time, such as radio waves and X-rays, both of which exist but are unseen, and the spiritual teachings of theosophy (Helena Blavatsky) and Rudolf Steiner. A copy of Martinus&#8217;s Livets Bog (The Book of Life), vol. 1 was found among her possessions after her death.<\/p>\n<p>The film director Halina Dyrschka guested the Martinus Centre in Klint in July 2020 to give a talk about her film &#8220;Beyond the Visible \u2013 Hilma af Klint&#8221;.
