BOLD: The Selected Works of Elena Kupreeva

Elena Kupreeva is a Swiss contemporary artist whose works have been showcased in exhibitions across the U.S. and Europe. Her works have been in the pages of publications such as British Vogue, Life Magazine and Boesner Schweiz Catalog, along with her anti-stress colouring books, which have garnered widespread international acclaim. Kupreeva’s artworks unite the rigour of classical paintings with a sensibility attuned to interior space. Her pieces combine art and interior design to create emotionally compelling spaces that are essential for inner harmony.

The artworks displayed in BOLD: The Selected Works of Elena Kupreeva focus on the strength displayed by bodies that are often seen through a superficial lens which focuses solely on the outward appearance. In the artworks exhibited the viewer is presented with koi fish portrayed for their perseverance; bold, strong women standing up for their right to be seen; and whimsical florals that counter the long history of belittling flower paintings when created by women. These works entice the viewer to look past the shimmering backgrounds and bright colours in order to truly see the complexities of women and nature often limited to just their beauty.
