Schaitl is an internationally active visual artist, performer, organiser, lecturer, and graduated in 2012 at the University of applied Arts, Vienna. From 2021 to 2022 she was co-leading the INTRA Research Project WITHDRAWING THE PERFORMER with Charlotta Ruth in the same University. She is a PhD Candidate at the Eugeniusz Geppert Academy of Art and Design (Wrocław). Since 2019 she is affiliated to the Angewandte Performance Laboratory, Vienna. In 2024, together with Daria Lytvynenko, she is co-leading the international collaboration project "Narrative Presences", co-funded by Zusa Culture (Creative Europe). The project offers artistic workshops for Ukrainian Refugees in collaboration with local institutions. The workshops aim to heighten the participants well-being and strengthen mental health, create agency and awareness. The project will take place in Austria, the Czech Republic and Ukraine.
Since 2014 she is regularly facilitating workshops sharing her performative approach in universities, institutions and performance festivals. She focuses on developing artistic, performative, pedagogical methods that combine the sense of touch, the theme of memory and contemplative practices. Within her PhD project, she published a “handbook of performative practices” that intend to train the mind, and raise well-being through artistic exercises that can be done by anyone without prior knowledge. Since 2021, she has created participatory works on a low-threshold level, inviting people to engage and co-create, which allows for a processual, specific reflection and contemplation of past, positive, individual experiences.
