Celeste Najt is a photographer and artist from Buenos Aires, Argentina who lives and works in Berlin, Germany.

Looking for inspiration in landscapes, people, and those unrepeatable fragments of time, in which everything seems to be perfectly engaged, or in those in which complexity seems to be unavoidable.
In the year 2007 she opened her own art gallery in Buenos Aires: El tigre Celeste, in order to promote emerging art and provide her work with an appropriate exhibition framework.

Her works were exhibited in Buenos Aires, Berlin, Miami, New York, Carlisle (UK), Amsterdam, Amersfoort, Zu...
