About the artist

Born in former Czechoslovakia, Kiki Spring (née Kristina Kucerova) was raised in a traditional environment where societal expectations often limited women’s paths toward independence and self-expression. Her early academic training combined literature, and fine arts at Comenius University in Bratislava, forming a strong conceptual foundation for her later artistic work.

In 2011, she moved abroad, first to the United States and later to Switzerland, where she has since established her life and artistic practice. Living and working between cultures profoundly shaped her perspective, strengthening her focus on identity, inner resilience, and emotional autonomy.

After a long period away from painting, Kiki Spring returned to art with a renewed clarity of vision. Today, her practice is devoted exclusively to contemporary abstract painting, with a strong emphasis on large-scale original works.

Her paintings explore feminine strength, emotional depth, and modern presence through intuitive layering, expressive movement, and refined color harmonies. Built through multiple translucent and textured layers, each composition evolves organically, allowing emotion rather than structure to guide the process.

Exclusivity is central to her work. Every painting is created as a one-of-one original — never reproduced, never printed, and never repeated. Scale plays a defining role in her practice, as large formats allow the viewer to experience the work not only visually, but physically and emotionally.

Based in Zug, Switzerland, Kiki Spring creates statement artworks designed for sophisticated contemporary interiors. Her paintings are intended to establish atmosphere, stillness, and presence — works that do not seek attention, yet quietly command it.

All artworks are created in Switzerland and are accompanied by a certificate of authenticity.
