Stefan Eicher

was born August 15, 1971, in Washim, India. Growing up in Bombay, he attended Woodstock School in the Himalayan foothills during his high school years. Taylor University in Indiana, USA, followed with a BA and a double-major in Art and Physics. Volunteering with Food for the Hungry International, Stefan then spent two years working for a community health project out of a rural hospital in southwestern Uganda. An MBA later, Stefan returned to India, the land of his citizenship, and has been doing consulting for NGOs ever since. After eight years of slumber, Stefan’s art vocation was revived with the founding of the Limner Society. Since then he has helped start the 'Art for Change Foundation' which runs the Reflection Art Gallery & Studios at 40A Shahpur Jat, New Delhi, a space dedicated to the creation and presentation of art affirming life and human dignity, as well as the annual Creative Conscience workshop where a group of artists meet to wrestle with and paint about social issues facing Indian society.
