Olena Shtepura stands as a visionary in the contemporary art scene, emerging from the prestigious National Academy of Fine Arts and Architecture in Kyiv, Ukraine. With a master's degree in arts and a rich educational foundation in set design and painting, Shtepura's creative prowess extends beyond the canvas into the dynamic world of stagecraft. A member of the National Union of Artists of Ukraine since 2019, her artistic journey is marked by a vibrant participation in over 30 group exhibitions, both at home and internationally, in the past five years alone.
Shtepura's artistry is a testament to her versatility, navigating through surrealism and expressionism while occasionally dancing on the cusp of abstraction. Her distinctive style is characterized by the use of large canvases where she wields bold and contrasting colors to craft statement pieces that resonate with a unique feminine perspective. Her works are not just visual spectacles but narratives that invite introspection and dialogue. Amidst the backdrop of conflict in her homeland, Shtepura's art has found poignant significance, participating in exhibitions across Europe and the United States that showcase the resilience and depth of Ukrainian art.
