Ekaterina Koroleva

Kiki (born Ekaterina Koroleva) is an illustrator and artist living in Berlin. Her works celebrate female figures as a central motif. She combines portraits of women and sensual silhouettes with botanical elements to create an organic symbiosis. Inspired by nature and new facets of feminine beauty, she creates playful interplays of form and colour that unfold their full effect both digitally and on paper.

Her passion for the Mediterranean lifestyle is also reflected in her colourful works. Impressions from past travels are finding an ever-growing place in her portfolio in the form of colourful food illustrations, playful objects and visual quotations.

In the field of applied illustration in particular, her focus is on combining design aesthetics and craftsmanship. As she works primarily in analogue, her art has a very personal and unique touch. In addition to classic studio work for international campaigns, ‘live drawing’ is a core aspect of her practice: this involves creating portraits and hand lettering works in real time, allowing the audience to experience the creative process of art first-hand. For several years, she has also been designing large-format murals.
