Stephanie’s artistic approach arises from her fascination with process, transformation, and renewal—continually seeking innovative ways to elevate ideas and expand visual storytelling. Her latest work merges layers of resin, pigment, and mixed media to create evocative landscapes that explore renewal, duality, and memory. Drawing on her background in Fashion Design and influences from Japanese symbolism, poetry, and Italian aesthetics, Stephanie’s immersive works balance intricate detail with conceptual depth, merging personal experience and cross-cultural inspiration.
