About

Behind each artwork lies a calculation. Behind each calculation, an intuition. Kristina Flegler is a Berlin-based fine artist and civil engineer who translates structural simulations into emotionally charged paintings. Her work makes you feel the forces that hold our world together.

Artist Bio

Born in Russia, based in Berlin, Kristina is a civil engineer turned artist. Her unique practice uses FEM (finite element method) simulations as the foundation for her compositions. These simulations—typically used to analyze structural integrity—become the raw material for poetic transformation.

Using oil and acrylic, she reveals hidden tensions, balances, and flows within materials and spaces. Her work bridges logic and emotion, creating a language where science and spirit meet.

Artist Statement

“My mission is to create art that reveals the unseen forces shaping our world – to shift perception, awaken curiosity and deepen the connection between humans and their environment. I invite the viewer to look beyond the surface — beyond the visible, into the unseen.

By merging my knowledge of mathematics and physics with artistic intuition, I explore the subtle dimensions of reality that often go unnoticed. Structures, energies, and reactions that exist all around us — in buildings, materials, even empty space — reveal a silent poetry when viewed through a creative lens.

Art, for me, becomes a medium to visualize the soul of science — to make the invisible visible.”

Artist Journey

“I began painting as a quiet refuge — a way to process emotion while studying and working as a structural engineer. At first, it was simply creative balance. But over time, something deeper revealed itself.

While analyzing structural simulations, I started to see more than numbers. I saw patterns, harmonies — a kind of silent music within the mechanics. These forces we calculate, optimize, control — they carry an invisible poetry.

That realization changed everything. The technical world I’d worked in for years unfolded into something deeply human, even spiritual. What was once analytical became expressive. What was rigid became fluid.

Now, I create paintings that bridge science and intuition — visualizing the hidden forces that shape our reality. Each piece invites you to sense what normally remains unseen: the tension in steel, the flow of energy, the spirit within structure.

Through my work, I aim to create a space where engineering speaks in color, and physics becomes feeling — making the invisible not only visible, but tangible.”
