Overview

Amanita is pleased to present I used to be a Mountain, Leonardo Meoni’s second solo exhibition in New York.

Leonardo Moeni (b.1994, Florence) works with a strongly material approach. His works are rooted in a three-dimensional corporeality. In close contact with the precepts of pictorial art, time, representation and gestures, Meoni empathically blurs the boundaries between genres and artistic practices by existing in an intermediate space between painting, sculpture, and drawing, emphasizing in his work the contamination of practices and different concepts towards universal hybridization. In a material game of action and subtraction, a temporality marked by the artist’s movement is added to the three-dimensional aspect of his works. Leonardo lives and works in Prato, Italy.
