Krista van der Niet (1978, NL) studied & graduated at the Gerrit Rietveld Academy in Amsterdam.
Krista works as a photographer in the editorial and cultural field, where she finds lots of freedom to develop her concepts and apply her own style. In her work she focuses on still lifes: staging colourful sceneries in a studio setting is what Krista loves to do. By constructing still lifes she tries to reach out the essence of mundane objects, celebrating simplicity and the purity of things.
Krista’s work is also to be seen in publications, group exhibitions and in private collections.
‘Being a lecturer at KABK, next to my own practice, is a great way of expanding and sharing my (technical) knowledge and my visual interest’.
