  • Artel Winter Exhibitions by Kim Blunt
    WINTER ARTEL 2 018 Secrets All’s Well That Hunter Red Wendy Sharpe Ends Well Razzamatazz Soup & Shakespeare QUARTERLY MAGAZINE MEET NAME Leeroy Chapman LIVES Marks Point FAMILY Mother Cathy and sister Sarah Leeroy Chapman BACKGROUND + EXPERIENCE VICE CHAIRPERSON Leeroy Chapman grew up near the coast in Lake Macquarie, where he developed a strong connection to the ocean and environment. He has been passionate about art since he was a kid; always picking up a pencil to draw in his books at school, he is now studying a Bachelor of Fine Arts with a Major in Sculpture at the University of Newcastle. When he is not at uni he is busy volunteering in the arts industry, including with Newcastle Art Space, Newcastle Art Gallery Youth Group and the exhibition space at Lake Macquarie City Library. Earlier this year, as the recipient of the Seedpod Youth Mentoring Program, he worked with Octapod to coordinate Seeds of Youth – an exciting new festival for Youth Week featuring skating, music and art – which was held in Newcastle’s Dangar Park in April. Leeroy’s own art practice looks at finding ways to express human nature and our relationship with the environment through representations of the body. His current research-based exploration of sculpture focuses on materials, such as clay and plaster, and shows a preference for natural tones. His work has been exhibited in group shows at Newcastle Art Space, Watt Space Gallery and Gallery 139. After finishing his degree, Leeroy hopes to travel for a year or two before returning to the Hunter to work in galleries and continue making his art.
