In his practice, the artist turns to images from various historical epochs, reinterpreting them through a contemporary context. Combining mythological motifs, cultural allusions, and visual elements of mass culture, Stefan creates multilayered compositions in which classical subjects coexist with modern forms of perception. The artist’s main themes are mythology, historical memory, cultural allusions, human solitude, and the interaction between classical art and contemporary visual culture. <\/p>\n\n
