“Spirituality Embodied”
2010 - 2014
For Leasure’s senior thesis at New College of Florida in 2014, she studied how the human form could be channeled in art to express emotion and spirituality. Leasure explored the effects of light and color along with an occasional breakdown of space and the human figure to achieve an otherworldly effect in her artwork. Below are selected works from her thesis exhibition.
