About The Author

Cleopatra Haritou

Kleopatra Haritou is an Athens-born visual artist and photographer whose work investigates the boundaries between life and death, architecture and memory. Educated in New York, Athens, and London—where she earned an MA in Photography & Communication from Goldsmiths College—she has exhibited widely in Greece and abroad, including the landmark solo show Prosfygika at the Benaki Museum and the public installation series Acrobats. Recipient of awards from Pentax, Leica, and Kodak, Haritou brings a distinct philosophical and narrative sensibility to her practice, transforming everyday urban environments into metaphysical meditations on time, loss, and the human condition.
