Leonardo Madriz
Leonardo Madriz is an interdisciplinary artist working across lens-based media, painting, sculpture, installation, and creative writing.
Madriz presents short films projected onto minimalist structures and sculptures inspired by home construction, borders, and domestic life. Through layered vignettes and filmic abstraction mapped onto physical objects, he explores the fluid boundaries between objects, space, and narrative to address themes of migration, place as home, the personal as political, and the roles of grief-work and storytelling in the search for belonging.
