Leon Licht

Leon Licht is a multidisciplinary artist whose work navigates the intersection of light, perception, and relationship to natural environments. Born in Vienna in 1985, Licht’s early fascination with the interplay of shadow and luminescence led him to experiment with a diverse array of materials, including glass, metal, and digital media. After studying at the Academy of Fine Arts Vienna, he quickly gained attention for immersive installations that transform public spaces and invite viewers into contemplative engagement.

Licht’s projects, exhibited in galleries across Europe and North America, often respond to site-specific contexts, using subtle gradations of light and color to evoke shifting sensory experiences. Critics have praised his ability to merge scientific curiosity with poetic intuition, bridging technology and organic matter in works that are at once ephemeral and deeply resonant. In addition to his solo practice, Licht frequently collaborates with architects, musicians, and environmental scientists, reflecting his commitment to interdisciplinary dialogue and sustainable artistic methods.
