Ekaterina Galera is a visual artist based in Toulouse, France. With a background in languages and design, her practice carries a literary sensitivity — attuned to rhythm, structure, and the unspoken. She treats painting as a form of visual writing, where silence holds weight and gestures speak as clearly as words.

Meaning emerges between the lines, built from absence, tension, and restraint. Her works unfold through layering, rhythm, and gesture — tactile, slow, and unresolved. She works primarily with raw canvas, wooden panels, dry pigments, and acrylics, often incorporating marble dust, vintage paper, and fragments of Japanese washi. These materials shape structure and voice, where texture, edge, and void become compositional elements.

Born in Russia and raised in Eastern Siberia, she carries with her the memory of vast horizons — where forests dissolve into steppe and seasons shift with sudden force. The muted earth tones and deep greens of that landscape echo quietly through her work today.
