All photographs were captured between 2009 and 2011. They were showcased in Kathrin’s solo exhibition Body & Soul in June 2011 in conjunction with the Auckland Festival of Photography. Three of these photographs were awarded honorable mention in the International Photography Awards Competition 2011 (IPA) in Los Angeles.

‘The body is a small boat in the face of music. Over the last three years Kathrin has photographed New Zealand’s leading dance companies including Black Grace and the Royal New Zealand Ballet. In this exhibition she resists the images of a storm at sea – exploring instead the pit of the wave, where muscle and music draw breath’ – Glenn Colquhoun

Since 2008, Kathrin is the official tempoº Dance Festival photographer and regularly captures dress rehearsals for several NZ dance companies.
