| LEILA KLEIMAN |
 |
Having the opportunity to study with Allan Hauser brought Leila Kleiman to stone and the 3-D world of the sculptor. Stone teaches the removal of that which is not inherently necessary, leaving the form to emerge from the background. The combination of original dyed paper designs, combined structurally with collage and etching has become a marriage of her two-dimensional and three-dimensional work. All the present pieces follow a flat format, much influenced by Japanese wood block prints. The negative space is as important as the space filled with color and line, giving the viewer an expressionistic impression of her travels.
