Kathleen Lerona

Kathleen Lerona is a Filipino-British abstract artist based in London. Lerona’s abstract style is inspired by her exploration of texture, form, and depth through minimalist abstraction. Her use of a black-and-white palette allows her to focus on the interplay of light and shadow, emphasising the tactile qualities of her mixed-media works, such as modroc, plaster, fabric, household materials on canvas. Her approach often seeks to evoke emotion and curiosity, drawing viewers into the layered complexity of her compositions. Her cultural background and personal experiences also inform her practice, fostering a unique blend of expressive yet restrained artistic expression.

Her style reflects a sophisticated balance between simplicity and expressive richness, making her work both visually compelling and emotionally resonant. Overall, her mixed-media technique is a vital element that contributes to the expressive and layered nature of her abstract art.
