Leah Clements is an artist from and based in London whose practice spans film, photography, performance, writing, installation, and other media to explore moments of transcendence. Her work is concerned with the relationship between psychological, emotional, and physical states, often through personal accounts of unusual or hard-to-articulate experiences. Her practice also focuses on sickness/cripness/disability in art, and how real and imaginary realms can operate as radical spaces to address collective experiences.
She is the 1st prize recipient of the 2023 Mosaic Art Award, Hauser & Wirth London, and was the first artist-in-residence at Serpentine Galleries (2020-21). Recent projects include her solo shows ‘INSOMNIA’ at South Kiosk (2022-23) and ‘The Siren of the Deep’ at Eastside Projects (2021). Upcoming projects include a solo show at Peer, London, and new permanent artwork commissioned by Bethlem for a new London hospital.
