Panizza Allmark (Panizza de Rozario) is a visualista, from Perth/Boorloo, Western Australia. She has worked as a documentary and commercial photographer for over thirty years. Panizza has spent time working across Asia, Europe, North and South America utilizing the techniques of photographie féminine which she developed in her doctoral thesis.

Drawing on écriture féminine, which traces an embodied writing practice, Panizza has refocused this as photographie féminine which engages in a self-reflexive ethical photographic practice that subverts dominant representations and draws attention to binaries. Photographie féminine is a dynamic visual response that seeks to challenge dominant representation by framing disparate elements of social realities through the use of dialectical images. The uniting of disparate elements is a motif in Panizza’s work, reflective of the mixed ethnic hybridity that she embodies.

Panizza has a BA Honours in Photomedia and was the first PhD in Australia to engage with feminist photographic practices as a street photographer/ photojournalist, drawing subversive critical attention to the body and media representations in the urban landscape.

Photographie féminine shares a number of similarities with postmodern documentary photography, such as self-reflexivity, a concern with power relationships and the nature of images and their circulation as well as the production of images that use irony as a political device.

Panizza has had over ten solo exhibitions and numerous group exhibitions. Her work has been exhibited in London, New York, Frankfurt, Shanghai, as well as in Italy and Australia.

Panizza has given keynotes and given artist talks on photography and visual culture. She has presented at the Institute of Contemporary Art, London, UK; at the 1st Global Colloquium on Photography and New Media Education for Youth Empowerment, Surabaya, Indonesia (representing Australia); the Advanced International Seminar, Lisbon Portugal; and the Callahan Centre Art Gallery,  New York,.

Panizza is Professor of Visual and Cultural Studies, in the School of Arts & Humanities, at Edith Cowan University, Australia.  

Panizza has lectured in Photomedia and supervised several PhD projects on photography.
