Krisztina Fazekas was born in 1977 in Hungary, but she moved to New York in 2004 after she finished her degree in media and communication. Her photographic work was selected for juried exhibitions and auctions across the United States and she continued to exhibit her work in Eastern Europe. In 2007 she decided to advance her academic knowledge about arts and took an MA program in Photographic Studies at University of Westminster in London. The same year she participated in the Renaissance competition where her work was selected as one of the winners and was exhibited at the Proud Galleries. She was also selected for Transform competition, and her work was shown in London and Italy. She participated in the Puzzle Project and volunteered as a visiting artist in the Young Offenders program at Camden Council. The very same year she decided to curate exhibitions (she organized two group shows at Foundry in London) and after moving back to Hungary in 2008, she opened a small gallery, which shows young talented artists from across the globe. In her work Krisztina Fazekas approaching the notion of home and memory, and the personal relationship between human beings and certain places that trigger memories, as they would be able to contain particles of human life. She is also aware of being a woman and a female artist in the 21st century and in several projects she approaches ideas about male-female relationships, expected behaviours and social expectations women are torn between. In 2010 her work titled Holofernes got an honorable mention at the Professional Women Photographers 35th Anniversary Women International Juried Photography Exhibition and was an Official Selection at Px3 Photo Paris Prize in 2011.
