From Dental Assistant to acclaimed Artist
Pagitsch’s journey to becoming a recognized artist is a testament to the power of pursuing one’s passions. She spent many years working as a dental assistant in her hometown of Ramingstein before establishing both her personal and professional life in Tamsweg.

As one observer noted, her works are “not smooth, not posed, but lively, honest and full of soul.” The stories embedded within each brushstroke are described as ranging from quiet contemplation to powerful expression, but always possessing significance.
Expanding Artistic Reach in the Region
Beyond the Tamsweg exhibition, Pagitsch is also involved in other artistic projects in the surrounding area. Plans are underway for a wall painting to be created in both Mariapfarr and Tams
