An Intimate Immensity — (Mark Making) : 2003 - 2016
"Her bright abstract works come to life on the page, bringing with them senses of dense, forested jungles, swirling rivers, the laugh of a child."
- Paige Ferro, Holter Museum of Art
“I hunt for a rapid instinctual affair of building on a surface.
A reckless advance in the studio, brush and fingers consort for color. I melt, mix, smear, scratch, drip, dash and drive into my work. Come fly among my marks; tangle with my mood. My color builds fast and reacts." - Leah Cupino
Leah Cupino shares that furious hail storm, or feather on the mountain wind, the freshly hung salmon slabs alongside an Alaskan river on a brilliant blue day, the smell of fresh basil bush, and limitless giggles of her three little boys. She relishes in the indescribable in-between, winding space and color around her exuberance..
