PROFILE

Based in auckland New Zealand Leanne Clayton is a multifaceted artist of Samoan and European descent 
whose primary medium is printmaking. Her textile works combine cultural and personal memory to consider 
the roles of family and tradition in a cross-cultural society. Her installations represent a confluence of 
Polynesian and Western cultures utilising techniques and materials from each. Drawing from diverse historical 
materials ranging from family photographs through to clothing and dress, she explores how cultural traditions 
shape who we are and where we are from.
