More recently - the experience of India has become evident in her work (adding another layer of cultural interest and a rich fusion of even more intense colour) allowing Leanne to fully celebrate and consolidate her thinking, regarding the universal feminine, in a more primal sense and inspired by cultural sensitivity. The sheer beauty of Indian storytelling and the evocative nature of the female form has drawn me to look carefully at the role of the feminine, both as the sensuous human form through to exploration of the sacred and profane. It’s about the personification of the reproductive energies of nature - birth, death, fertility, motherhood and regeneration - all cyclical qualities.
