Leta Sobierajski

Leta Sobierajski is a multidisciplinary artist and designer based in New York, known for her bold use of color, composition, and playful approach to form. Working across graphic design, photography, installation, and sculpture, she blends traditional and unconventional techniques to create work that is both emotionally resonant and visually striking.
  As one half of the studio Wade and Leta, her practice has taken her around the world—from large-scale public installations in Asia to immersive exhibitions across Europe and the United States—bringing her distinctive aesthetic to audiences on a global scale.
   She studied graphic design at Purchase College and has been working independently since 2013. She has been recognized as an Art Directors Club Young Guns 15 recipient as well as Print magazine’s New Visual Artist, and has given talks at conferences and institutions all over the world including North America, South America, Africa, Asia, Europe, and Australia.
