Leona, Public Artist

About Me

Hello! I'm a Public Artist based in London, U.K. I specialise in making seating and sculptures using Cement.
Cement is such a great, flexible material which can be cast, moulded, sculpted and carved. I work primarily in response to a site or location, taking into consideration who uses the space and what its current issues are. My main objective is to take an unused, forgotten or empty space and create a vibrant, sacred place for people to relax in and enjoy.
The photos below are of my most recent project in Mile End Park, East London. Originally only meant to be a temporary project, the seats were so durable and well-received that the Parks Director asked that that they be left in situ.
