Meet the Artist

Leah Rolando

Leah Rolando’s photographic practice is rooted in minimalism and vibrancy. She works with colourful Perspex sculptures, carefully arranging them to create images that sit somewhere between photography and abstract art.

Leah is drawn to the moment where a photograph begins to feel like a graphic object, and enjoys playing with this tension. In doing so, she invites the viewer to question what they are looking at, and how it has been made.
