About me

Catharina Pavitschitz Is an Austrian born, London based Photographer, working across womenswear, menswear, still life and beauty. With a background in styling and design she has an appreciation for craftsmanship and a great eye for detail. Her work is infused with a sense of surrealism and an exploration of the "in between". She is particularly interested in gender identity, gender performativity and ideas of no gender at all. Diversity and body positivity are key tenants within her work. This includes but is not exclusive to age, size and ethnicity.
