Information

Elisabeth Scheder-Bieschin was born in Hamburg, Germany, where she studied Visual Communication at the University of Fine Arts. This led to a career in commercial photography and editorial assignments for many European publications.

She has lived in London since 1997, and began experimenting with early forms of photography in 2013. In 2021 she completed an MA in the History of Photography at Birkbeck College, London.

Scheder-Bieschin’s striking images were first shown at Paul Smith in London; then in New York, San Francisco and Hamburg. Her work has also been included in exhibitions at London’s National Portrait Gallery and Royal Academy of Arts.
