Presentation

Cristina Balan is a Moldova-based abstract artist. Born in 1977, she studied arts from the age of five. Very early on, her works were exhibited at various artistic performances in Moldova and abroad. The fall of the Soviet Union paused Cristina's creative ascension, and after graduating the School of Fine Arts she had to work in the corporate world to be able to support herself. In her thirties, she became a prominent business community leader, and in early forties was appointed as the Ambassador of Moldova to the United States.

In 2019, after an almost 20-year hiatus from painting, Cristina returned full-time to art, her abstract paintings being quickly noticed and appreciated by the public. Modern art magazines including Diafano (Spain), Art Hole and Boomer (UK) featured her works. Her paintings have been displayed in art shows in Washington D.C., New York City and Kiev. Cristina's works are currently featured by galleries from NYC, Tokyo, Barcelona and Treviso.

Artist Statement

Art is beauty, harmony, and depth to me. It uplifts humanity and that is my contribution to the world. I aspire to make the invisible visible, to open the human heart, to awaken feelings deep inside all of us. I use acrylic on canvas, and sometimes molding paste to give texture to my works. Although I am seen as an abstract artist, each of my works is unique, born of pure inspiration and of my intention to help transform the world.
