INNIT

On his latest series of work created during lockdown and the aftermath, until the current state of affairs Leon shows us his take on society and culture, particularly in London, in a more visceral and mundane way.

He reminds us, how in a time of uncertainty and constraint, the social issues we faced before remained a constant, even accentuating them. A representation of our individualistic traits and coincidentally, the need for connection. 

​

Each piece of art is a juxtaposition of everyday objects that otherwise would not be considered bodies of art, Leon rearranges them so they can be perceived in an entirely different light, thus creating a new narrative and value. A Rendition, a homage of experiences, emotions and feelings that ameliorate a day in the life. 

​

The title "INNIT" one of the most notorious slang terms in London, with infinite connotations. A title that not only compliments his perception of the city but emphasises the overall idea and notion of London as one of the most charming/unscrupulous cities ever.
