SUMMARY:Nikki Leone: Rule Breaker
DESCRIPTION:Presented By: Virginia Museum of Contemporary Art\nJuly 12, 2024 – January 5, 2025\nRecurring weekly on Sunday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday\nVirginia Museum of Contemporary Art (MOCA)\n2200 Parks Avenue, , , Virginia Beach, VA 23451\n(757) 425-0000\nTime: 10:00 AM to 4:00 PM\nPrice: Free for Virginia Residents\n \nArtist Nikki Leone challenges norms through unexpected art. As a woman juggling many roles, she seeks creative freedom beyond societal constraints. Leone explores math, science, and design—not for rigid answers but to find beauty in the tension of forms and imagery.  What makes one shape/object seem further away than another? Why do barking dogs seem masculine while flowers seem feminine? Her collages and rugs weave such odd pairings into nuanced visual statements.\nLeone amplifies her vision by using AI to create images that she incorporates into her artwork. She blurs the digital and physical realms and claims agency over her artistic expression. Rule Breaker celebrates Leone’s unconventional journey as an artist who transcends expectations and redefines the boundaries of her craft.\nLeone received her MFA from the University of California, Santa Barbara after earning a BFA from Virginia Commonwealth University School of the Arts. Beyond her artwork, Leone works as a display coordinator and window design artist for retail companies and runs her own display design business, Poplar & Pine Studio.\n \n
