About​

 

I am Elena Weipert, a german Illustrator, working and living in Berlin. In my work I have a particular focus on character design and storytelling. I refined my sense of visual narration during my studies in communication design at the Folkwang University if Art in Essen, where I graduated with a graphic novel. 

​

Themes such as social justice, feminism and science fiction run through my work, giving my characters and stories depth and significance. My stories not only entertain but also invite thoughtful reflection and explore important cultural themes. Also I am a big fan of fashion and youth culture!
