Brianna Leatherbury

Brianna Leatherbury shuffles the spaces of productivity to create dissonant and abstract systems. Their sculptures explore the material and historic definitions of “resources,” identifying and exaggerating their expressions within our present-day industries. Working across sculpture, performance, and site, their work seeks an intimate connection in its interaction with and persuasion of spatial infrastructures.

Brianna Leatherbury is currently based in Amsterdam. They received their BFA from the Cooper Union in New York in 2017. In 2018, they were awarded the Fulbright Research Grant, which brought them to Moscow, Russia for one year. Afterwards, they participated in De Ateliers in Amsterdam from 2019-21. Leatherbury has recently shown at the 15th Kaunas Biennale (LT), Jan Kaps (DE), 15th Gwangju Biennale (KR); CAPC (FR) Brunette Coleman (UK); and The Hartwig Foundation (NL).
