Giulia Crețulescu


b. 1994, Romania
Lives and works in Bucharest

Giulia Crețulescu creates hybrid works by combining diverse materials (textiles, steel, aluminium) and techniques (embroidery, engraving, drawing). She starts with functional objects or elements of the human body, deconstructing them into new forms that become artworks. This process prompts viewers to engage with familiar objects in unfamiliar ways, redefining their meanings. Her interdisciplinary approach explores the relationship between physical reality and subjective perception, emphasizing how objects can expand both physical and mental boundaries while inspiring diverse interpretations.

Giulia Crețulescu completed the Bachelor and Master studies in Graphic Art, following the Doctoral program in Visual Studies at the National University of Arts in Bucharest where she was an Assistant Professor for the Graphic Art department. Giulia Crețulescu collaborated with spaces in Bucharest (National Museum of Contemporary Art), Cluj-Napoca, and internationally, including in recent years: 2024 – Wild Card, Fragment Gallery, New York (solo show); Variables as Absence of Uniformity, Stockholm (group show); 2023 – Pickle Bar Presents: Slavs and Tatars, West Den Haag, Netherlands (group show); Following the Body, Fragment Gallery, New York (group show); A Human Being After All, EastContemporary Gallery, Milan (group show); 1:1, Ivan Gallery, Bucharest (duo show with Gavril Pop); Costume and Collapse, Pickle Bar Slavs and Tatars, Berlin (group show); My Rino is Not A Myth, ArtEncounters Biennale, Timișoara.
