Kadri Kangilaski's painting exhibition "Everything is possible"

Kadri Kangilaski:

I was born in 1973 and graduated with an MA from the Painting Department of the Estonian Academy of Arts in 1997. Since 1995, I have participated in exhibitions with paintings, installations, and performances both in Estonia and internationally. Since 2015, I have also been teaching painting at the Faculty of Design of the Estonian Academy of Arts.

In my artistic work, I have always trusted my intuition and followed inspiration. As a painter, I have often been captivated by flowers—by their perfection and transience. In this exhibition, they symbolize the inner processes of giving and dedication in my paintings.

This exhibition also features paintings of flower buds, which have especially fascinated me recently. To me, they represent the perfect potential of life. In the buds lie deep, unseen, yet-to-be-revealed knowledge about life.

Light gives us the impression of colors and, together with shadows, reveals forms.

I am interested in how to create an image from this enchanting illusion—an illusion on the canvas—so that the inner power of the blossoms and buds is still expressed in these representations.

The painting exhibition at the Estonian University of Life Sciences library is open until November 14, 2025.

All are warmly welcome!
