Joshua Leon
April – June 2023


Joshua Leon is a poet, writer, and visual artist. Drawing on Jewish history, his work explores the “all but hidden” and lament as spaces of critical engagement; as he describes it, “... slowly working on repairing the broken windows.” By inhabiting historically complicated positions such as that of the wanderer and degenerate, his text-led process produces exhibitions and performances that bind memoir and historical research with invitations to witness and conspire.
