Virginia Leonard works with clay, resin, and glaze to create abstracted and visceral ceramic sculptures. Layering her vibrant materials, the works are fired with drips still in motion, freezing them in a state of intermediary peril, as though on a precipice. This tension stems from her work being predominantly autobiographical—a cathartic process, it is a personal language for expressing a lifetime of chronic pain.

Gow Langsford Gallery has represented Virginia Leonard since 2020.
