Kristi Kongi is an Estonian artist that roots herself in a formal exploration of light, color, and space. For her, landscapes exist as emotional horizons, where spatial divisions are suggested by abstract curvilinear shapes and bright saturated color fields. Vivid crimsons, electric pinks, blood oranges, and deep purples are used to create dramatic contrasts, resulting in a flurry of emotional responses that remain indignant of Kongi’s own illustrious memories of places.
