Lost Words features new work by Leslie Nichols

Lost Words: A Juried Exhibit of Art and Poetry at the Northwind Art Gallery in Port Townsend, Washington, features two pieces from my newest Remnant series. This exhibition is a national showing of poets and visual artists in an eclectic mix of both disciplines, who responded to the theme of language, its mutability, and how words guide us, especially when they are lost.

Manifesting Presence opens at Lexington Art League

Manifesting Presence
Lexington Art League
September 25-November 6, 2020

Artists Kristina Arnold, Leslie Nichols, and Yvonne Petkus come together in Manifesting Presence, an exhibition exploring the ways in which they as individual artists and as a collective hold space – and how biological, psychological, historical, and social environments shape this process. Arnold, Nichols, and Petkus began a group called the Critique Collective in Bowling Green, Kentucky six years ago. This will be their first time exhibiting as that collective. From large, wall-sized installations to intimately scaled works on paper, Manifesting Presence will include Arnold’s installations of cast glass, mixed fiber media, paper, and ink, Nichols’ text-based works created with tools including manual typewriters and a letterpress printing press, and Petkus’ sculptural paintings on plexiglass, mylar, panel, and canvas.

Creative Debuts Exhibition in London

Creative Debuts continues their passionate support of International Womxn’s Day with this exhibition held on March 8th in Shoreditch, London. I am excited to showcase my work alongside 19 other thought provoking and talented artists.

There will be a range of contemporary artwork including photography, sculpture, craft, fine art and film while raising money for The Homeless Period, an incredible initiative that provides sanitary products to homeless women.

Come along and join us in celebrating equality, diversity and accessibility through art!
