Leah’s second solo presentation at Void_Melbourne takes its name from John Cage’s In a Landscape written in 1948. A meditative, hypnotic composition and a source of deep inspiration, the work evokes landscapes both physical and imagined. Space around each piece is important. Calmness, precision and materiality are accentuated as we consider the living cherry and spruce trees the veneers came from, and perhaps the Shinto shrines in the mountains of Japan that inspire the structure, form and colour palette of these small but powerful works.
Working from a compact studio in her garden on Wurundjeri Woiwurrung Country in Naarm/Melbourne, Leah Teschendorff’s work encompasses many disciplines. She has been the recipient of numerous awards, residencies and grants and completed a Masters of Fine Art at RMIT in 2011. Recent exhibition highlights include Minimal: Less is More, Nothing is Something at JAHM; The Distant Edge and ABSTRACTI♀︎N at Five Walls; Of Colour and Light, Women Abstract Artists Biennial at West Space.
