About the Artist: Steffi Chupein

Steffi Chupein is a mixed media artist and photographer whose creative path began with digital photography and deepened into painting during retirement. A retired therapist and avid gardener, she draws inspiration from nature and personal reflection.

Her abstract works are built in many layers—sometimes over 50—and often include collage with handmade or sourced papers. Through color, texture, and complexity, her art explores themes of healing, transformation, and the beauty found in imperfection.

This show is open to the public at no charge. The Bernice Kish Gallery hours are Monday through Friday from 9:00 am – 4:30 pm. The Gallery strongly recommends calling ahead to make sure all gallery areas are open.
