A lavishly illustrated book showcasing the work of internationally renowned artist Lesley Bodzy. Bodzy is a sculptor and painter based in New York City and Houston. Her work explores the ways in which materiality can give form and visibility to psychologically complex experiences. Trauma, loss, and desire are recurring themes that emerge through material processes and a thoughtfully devised personal metaphorical language.
Bodzy's practice is steeped in a genuine fascination with materials and their expressive potential. She instigates the components of her works to commingle and conspire, allowing their malleability and resistance to point her toward a subject that emerges as part of a personal and meditative concentration. The delicate and yet resistant sur- faces create new and unpredictable cycles of associations and challenge assumptions around expressions of vulnerability, restraint, and strength.
Lesley Bodzy holds an MFA from the School of the Art Institute of Chicago and studied at Mount Holyoke College, Hunter College, and the Art Students League of New York. Her work is represented by galleries in Houston, TX, Saugerties, NY, Williamsburg, VA, and Jersey City, NJ and has been exhibited widely across the United States and abroad. Past exhibitions include Spring Break NYC, ChaShaMa, and Sculptors Alliance in NYC, Holy Art Gallery in London, UK, Site: Brooklyn, Emerge Gallery in Saugerties, NY, the Mattatuck Museum in Waterbury, CT, the Susquehanna Art Museum in Harrisburg, PA, and the Meadows Gallery in Tyler, TX.
