Cristina Gârleșteanu (b. 1984) is a photographer and marketing professional. With a background in social sciences – she attended the Faculty of International Relations and European Studies at UBB Cluj-Napoca – photography was a means to bring her closer to this field. A former Editor-in-Chief of the online magazine FOTO4all, Gârleșteanu is also a co-founder of Bucharest Photo Week. Her images have been published in a range of magazines, whilst her work has featured in various group and solo exhibitions, most recently in the USA and Mexico. Gârleșteanu is a member of Women Street Photographers. Her photo book, “The Flight Odyssey”, was published in 2022.
In 2021 and 2023, she also published the two volumes “Beyond Creativity and Photography” and she is part of Futures Photography starting 2023.

She began working with collage and mixed media quite recently, after experimenting with illustration and other forms of artistic expression. She enjoys collage because it is a form of creative expression that allows for the reinterpretation and recontextualization of old elements, bringing forgotten stories to life or offering new perspectives on familiar images.
