Nolwenn Léonard is a visual artist based in Liège.
She gained her bachelor’s degree studying drawing and printmaking at the academy of Fine Arts in Tournai followed by a master’s degree in visual arts at E.S.A.D. in Caldas Da Rainha, Portugal.
Her drawing can be seen as an act of meditation during which she takes the time to (re)discover the world around her. Her work is based on her photography, modifying the pictures by different means until only remains which is essential for her.
