Sean Leone : The Language of Geometric Abstraction
A 2017 Biola University BFA graduate, Sean Leone deciphers the visual poetry hidden within text, translating words into striking geometric abstractions. His paintings merge systematic codification (alphabetic, numeric, or symbolic) with an intuitive approach to balance—resulting in works that are as methodical as they are emotionally resonant. Now a Peabody Gallery design associate, Sean bridges gallery practice and studio experimentation, participating in Bay Area group shows while refining his signature interplay of hard-edge forms and rhythmic negative space. This collection showcases his evolution: from academic rigor to professional precision, all anchored by a singular question: How do we see the shape of language?
