Ley is an abstract figurative artist working with acrylics and a range of printmaking techniques. Incorporating influences from artists such as Henri Matisse, Hyangmok Baik, Egon Schiele, and NC-based Reneesha Mccoy, Ley is particularly interested in describing how our bodies and identities and the ways others perceive them are used to confer power, limit rights, exercise control, and interrogate identity. Ley was born in England and moved to the US in the late 1980s after many years traveling and living throughout Europe.
