Sarah Leuchtner (b. 1993) is a Chicago-based artist that received her BFA from The School of the Art Institute of Chicago. Leuchtner’s practice deftly incorporates precepts of contemporary culture with a painterly approach that calls on formal relationships with the graphic, the iconographic and the structural. Her sharply honed geometric vocabulary leverages repetition to explore expressions of contemporary social consumption. This exploration is most directly at work in her process-based engagement with “guilty pleasure” media, often incorporated in the artist’s studio while she is at work.
