Statement
Cristina Schek is an established mid-career international artist who lives and breathes in pictures. A Transylvanian Surrealist now rooted in London, Schek crafts conceptual work that explores identity and the nature of representation, with literature, films, and art history as her muse. Completely self-taught in photography and far removed from traditional or documentary styles, the camera is merely a tool for the artist. Her true passion lies in storytelling—venturing into the unknown, layering, and crafting images into creative compositions.
Schek's portfolio is celebrated on a global scale, highlighted by prestigious exhibitions and art fairs such as the London Art Fair, British Art Fair, Art Miami, Palm Beach Modern + Contemporary, Hamptons Art Fair, NY Art fair and LA Art Show. Her notable achievements include receiving recognition at Phillips Auction House with the BFAMI Art Exhibition 2022, having a selection of her works published by Rosenstiel’s and winning the W4 Fourth Plinth with 'The Ceiling In The Sky' 4x4m installation in 2023.
