Katrin Piile
Katrin Piile (1987) is a painter living and working in Tallinn. She graduated from the Estonian Academy of Arts with a BA in Painting in 2010 and has participated in exhibitions since 2006.
Piile’s work is distinguished by technical mastery, meticulous attention to detail, and a highly time-intensive working process, most clearly expressed in her hyperrealistic paintings and drawings. Her works are often developed as larger painting series that bring together technical skill, carefully constructed color compositions, and references to the history of painting. Katrin Piile has been awarded with Malle Leis Art Prize (2020) and Konrad Mägi Prize (2024).
Recent exhibitions by Katrin Piile include “Nothing Blooms Forever – After Still Life” (Tütar Gallery, 2025); “Symbiosis” (2024) at Tartu Art House with sculptor Art Allmägi; “Nothing and Other Such” (2024) at Haapsalu City Gallery; “Origami” (2023) at Hobusepea Gallery and Pärnu City Gallery with Art Allmägi; and “In Search of Idyll” (2023) at Tütar gallery.
