Hi, I am Stephanie.
I am a Brazilian abstract artist living and working in Berlin.
Painting became central to my life after experiences that reshaped how I relate to time, presence, and emotion. Having gone through a cancer diagnosis several years ago, alongside major professional transitions and living across different countries and cultures, my attention shifted toward what is essential and deeply felt. Art became a way to hold emotion without defining it, creating work that is sensed rather than explained.
I began painting in 2021. What started as an exploration of surface and material evolved through distinct yet connected investigations. Early series such as Texture focused on tactile presence and physicality. With Vestiges, the work became more fluid and atmospheric, guided by memory and movement. Today, my practice moves toward greater intention and clarity. It embraces a strength that does not need to announce itself, now expressed in my current series, Whispers.
My process is intuitive and layered, balancing structure and openness. I allow each painting to develop organically, guided by rhythm, color, and spatial tension.
Before dedicating myself fully to art, I spent years in global marketing leadership roles. That background informs my practice through clarity and coherence, while leaving space for intuition.
My work is collected internationally, including Brazil, Germany, Austria, the United Kingdom, Italy, France, Spain and United States.
