Krista Mölder (EE, b. 1972) is an Estonian artist living and working in Tallinn. She works mainly with analogue photography, whilst her projects address issues of visual representation. Often, Mölder’s work revolves around dualities and the complex interplay of different forces, capturing the intricate imbalance of situations and settings that may at first appear stable. Intrigued by the visual lure of these situations, Mölder aims to depict their potential – and the inadvertent motion or flux that characterises them.
For Mölder, photography disrupts that which is temporary or fleeting by fixing moments – “a grimace before a smile, a suspended wave, a runner floating in mid-air.” Striving to capture the in-between, her work at Foto Tallinn questions stasis, revealing the tension between motion and stillness, or the visible and the hidden.
