Valerie de León
Artist Statement


"The word 'impressions' is used as both the technique & ultimate goal for each person to have when they come across my work. Whether easily identifiable or more abstract, inspiration is pulled from various subjects ranging in the natural world, human connection & our history. By fusing body movements, botanicals & everyday items, my hope is to create a moment where you pause with a renewed understanding for the world around us and grow a space where positive changes can span across cultures, identities & socio-political events."
Based in New York, NY
