About Kittiya
Kittiya Pawlowski is an artist and visual storyteller dedicated to amplifying the causes that deserve global attention. Her work operates at the intersection of fine art and conservation, producing creative narratives that drive economic and social support for wildlife protection and environmental restoration.
As a natural extension of her mission to utilize creative expression for global good, Kittiya founded Make an Artist Foundation. This nonprofit initiative is dedicated to dismantling the barriers to creative equity by providing children with the infrastructure and resources needed to find their own voices.
Whether through her personal photography, strategic partnerships with NGOs, or the leadership of her foundation, Kittiya ensures that every visual narrative translates into tangible, systemic benefits for the communities and ecosystems she represents.
A Self-Directed Vision
Kittiya’s creative trajectory began with early experimentation, sparking a lifelong inquiry into the power of the lens. Choosing a self-directed path over traditional secondary art education, she forged a unique aesthetic unfettered by conventional academic constraints. This independent approach allows her to develop visual narratives fueled by pure vision and a commitment to authenticity.
Her work does not merely observe; it constructs a dialogue. Kittiya utilizes the camera as one component of a sophisticated toolkit—incorporating digital composition and artistic processing to build impactful visual experiences. By prioritizing vision over traditional documentation, she creates art that inspires emotional resonance and drives support for the global causes she represents.
