Andriana Mereuta

Andriana Mereuta is a Miami-based photographer. With prior education as an economist, a rewarding career in photography and as of late, her training as a mindfulness teacher, the common thread in all of them is her love for our shared humanity, fascination for beauty, and deep belief in living life with a sense of service for a greater good. Storytelling and portraiture are the ways through which she explores these threads in her work. Her current project focuses on Moldova’s national identity, her home country, exploring its different facets reflected in culture, folklore and daily life.

In 2020, she won the South Broward Cultural Consortium Award and her work on Moldova was exhibited at the NSU Art Museum in Fort Lauderdale.

In 2020-2021, in collaboration with United Nations Development Programme and a Hometown Association in Moldova, Andriana received a grant from the U.S. Embassy in Moldova to facilitate a US-Moldova cultural program to promote collaboration and fruitful relationships between the two countries. The program involved the participation of two National Geographic photographers Lynn Johnson and Erika Larsen and resulted in a one-year mentorhip of 30 young people in the art of storytelling and active participation in the local development of their communities.
