ELLI MARGARETE STEIERT
Artist Statement
​
Inspired by the diverse experiences and influences of daily life as well as my travels, my art serves as a personal diary capturing a wealth of impressions and emotions. My visual language primarily consists of shapes and colors engaged in a constant dialogue with each other, blending seamlessly.
