Leo Buckett is a New Zealand based Artist with training in both traditional fine art and contemporary design. Combining the two, Buckett creates dreamlike images with dark textural elements and stark, contrasting tones and colour. Often depicting stoic women in minimalistic environments, balancing intricate detail with simplified form and distorted proportions. His work can often be recognised by noting the graphic execution of the finished product and the colours which jump out from the work.
Alongside solo exhibitions of works representing his individual style, Buckett is the partnering director alongside fellow Artist Oscar Guerrero of ‘The perfect film and chemical corporation‘ design studio based in Lyttelton, Christchurch, New Zealand.
