BIO:
Bridget Moreen Leslie is an Australian-American artist based in Oakland, California. Her work attempts to illustrate and collapse the spatial and psychological barriers between class-structure, location, and body language through time-based mediums, sculptures and installations that utilize familiar objects and mundane interior spaces. Bridget has been using the term Non-Space since 2016. More recently, her work has been dealing with topics such as illness and bodily autonomy within a familial ecosystem.
Bridget received her BFA from Sydney University's Sydney College of the Arts in 2015 and received her MFA with Honors from Parsons School of Design in 2017. Bridget has written book reviews for FineArtsGlobe and Artbook/ D.A.P. She has worked at museums, galleries and for individual artists across New York and most recently was the director of Craig Krull Gallery in Los Angeles.
In 2020 she co-founded V i d e o S o u n d A r c h i v e. That same year she published her book, People|Non|Spaces: Humanity in Homogeneous Zones, which explores the paradoxical nature of Non-Spaces through a series of essays and art projects on subjects such as Non-Wealth, AI celebrities, Ideological State Apparatuses, and Commonwealth Countries. This book can be found in libraries and artbook stores across the US. Her work has been shown internationally in Sydney, Australia at Project-X, Ded-Space gallery and Sydney College of the Arts, the Queen's Museum in New York, the National Humanities Center in North Carolina, IAO in Oklahoma City, The Zurich Art Expo in Switzerland, and the CICA Museum in South Korea. She was a resident at the Hollows, Brooklyn and will be a resident at Rondo in Mexico City in 2025. Her writing and art has been published in the Vassar Review, Vellum Magazine, EMERGENCY INDEX and other international publications. Her work was included in the A.I.R Biennale in 2021.
