Leon Finley

(American, born 1987)

Leon Finley is an inter-disciplinary artist and Tarot and Akashic Records reader. He was born in Seattle—the traditional land of the Coast Salish Peoples past and present including the Duwamish—where he continues to live and work. In his own words, "my work moves among performance, sculpture, drawing, sewing, writing, and many places in between. I create art from my experience having a physical and spiritual body... I work within a framework that understands that bodies are vibrating, that matter is not solid but is in fact, movable, permeable and changeable. My work in all realms is about supporting the joy, connection, and healing of myself and others."

Finley received a Bachelor of Fine Arts degree from Cooper Union School of Art in New York City in 2009 and a Master of Fine Arts degree in sculpture from the Yale School of Art in Connecticut in 2012.
