About Leah Kennedy - West Australian Fine Art Photographer

Born Perth, Australia.
Current Bachelor of Arts – Fine Art and Visual Culture, Curtin University.

Kennedy’s primary medium is photography, experimenting with digital and analog photography, new and mixed medias into her work. Her work explores psychological landscapes, contrasts, ambiguity and complexity in our culture and environment.

Awards include Lensculture Emerging Talent, published and exhibited nationally and internationally.

“Photography is a medium like any other, it can replicate what you see with your eyes but it is not beholden to reality. As a result my work rarely refers to the physical equivalent, it is imbued with a thought that is not necessarily of the subject.”
