Brazil | Love of My Life | A Bit of History
Meine Liebe zu Brasilien See the English Translation further down. This is a text, I wrote for the BRAZIL CHINA PROJECT with fellow German artist Heike Hahn 2020 Sommer 1993 – das Telefon klingelte, Marianne Stüve, Vorsitzende der Ponte Cultura e. V. fragte, ob ich Interesse hätte im nächsten Jahr bei zwei Ausstellungen in Brasilien teilzunehmen. Ich überlegte eine Sekunde und sagte zu. Unsere Gruppe bestand aus fünf Künstlerinnen, neben Marianne Stüve, Annette Blocher (die später doch nicht mitkommen konnte), Renate Gehrcke, Carola Dewor und mir. Erst stand ein 3-wöchiger Portugiesisch-Crashkurs auf dem Plan. Ende März 1994 saßen wir dann im Flugzeug nach Sao Paulo. Es war das erste Mal,…

Hello Boundary!
I moved back into my studio on 2nd Avenue and Boundary. Just 100 meters into Burnaby. Another upstairs studio. Close to my business and the wonderful people that make it run so smoothly. It is a pleasure to be so close to the art of my friends and my own art. I feel at home in this south facing place. It is spacious. Not exciting as the boatyard was, but I am entering a new phase in my work as well. And it is a more contemplative work. So the quietness that I have there results in concentrated work. Literally. I have just to brought my large working table from…

Goodbye Granville Island Studio
From 2022-2024 in May I had the great pleasure to work at a wonderful studio overlooking the “Barn”, a place where yachts and smaller boats are repaired on the Granville Island Boat Yard. I am leaving this inspiring place with a heavy heart, but will be still present on the Island at Malaspina Printmakers Society, also on Duranleau Street, where I will go back to one of my old passions, printmaking. This lovely video was shot and created there 2023 by artist friends Berenice Freedome and Frank Lee. Many thanks to them!

2024 | UBUNTU – END OF MASQUERADE
Exhibition September 2024 | Gemeinschaftshaus Langwasser | Nürnberg | Germany What an incredible task our life is… We are born naked and die disguised. In between we hope to find ourselves. How is it, that we are born so pure, innocent and maskless, and spend so many years hiding who we really are. When do people start to bend and disguise themselves, to mask themselves and, above all, why. In my art, I have traced the (disguised) tortured creatures from the very beginning and, with my characteristic ruthless openness, I have revealed my own truth little by little, bit by bit. I analyzed the underworld, the cosmos and the here…

About Taking Risks and Becoming a Successful Female Entrepreneur
A ShoutoutLA Interview In February I was approached by a lifestyle magazine from LA with the question whether I was interested to do an interview with them. Since my last interview was quite some time ago, I decided to do it. I realized that I am way more passionate about my business than I thought I am. Here you can read a short report of my long entrepreneurial way with AION from 2003 to 2024. See the full article here: https://shoutoutla.com/meet-stefani-peter-visual-artist-entrepreneur/ unfortunately the website is often updating content and so the article is sometimes not available. So I made my own version again and added some more images from the…
