Milena Kravetz

Hello, my name is Milena Kravetz, also known by my artist name KATASTROFFFE. I was born on November 5, 1988, and I am currently based in Lisbon, Portugal. I have traveled extensively for work throughout Europe and Asia, having lived in 35 countries. I graduated from the Academy of Art ADA in Florence, Italy, and hold a Master's degree in Fine Art and Sculpture. With a decade of teaching experience in the same field, I am passionate about sharing my knowledge. In addition to my teaching career, I have contributed to documentary photography and filmmaking projects for UNESCO. In 2017, I received an award for my work as the director of photography on the film "Learn to Play the Game." My artistic endeavors focus on a deep passion for art and documentary photography, often utilizing black and white images to convey my emotions towards people and architecture. Currently, I am focused on artistic fashion photography, few projects dedicated to model castings such as Mortal Casting and Fashion Showcase at Pla Arte by Milena Kravetz, working on backstages of high fashion shows, etc. Additionally, I invest in supporting Sustainable Fashion through the project "WHAT A WASTE!" My work has been showcased in approximately 10 exhibitions and featured in over 50 publications across various magazines and popular creative platforms. Currently, I am actively engaged in producing photography books, developing a KATASTROFFFE clothing line, and serving as a Creative Director for different companies. Additionally, I mentor individuals in the fields of Art Start-ups and Creative Thinking.
