Leah Cupino’s ‘Erratic’ – A Journey Through Unpredictability and Transformation

In our latest episode, we sit down with Leah Cupino to explore her newest body of work, Erratic. This Artsy.net exclusive exhibition, running from December 4th, 2024, to March 4th, 2025, is a bold investigation into impermanence, resilience, and the unpredictable forces that shape our world.

Drawing inspiration from glacial erratics—boulders transported across landscapes by glaciers or volcanic eruptions—Cupino reimagines these geological wanderers as metaphors for human experience. With shimmering silk chiffon paintings, sculptures crafted from recycled plastics, and innovative materials that blur the line between natural and manmade, her work challenges us to see beauty in transformation and chaos.

Join us for an in-depth conversation as Cupino delves into the inspiration behind Erratic, the tension between permanence and fragility, and how her art captures the relentless forces of nature. A favorite of The Bureau of Queer Art magazine and podcast, Cupino returns to share the journey of her practice, from mountain adventures to her studio in Montana.

Catch the full interview in January 2025, part of Season 5 of The Bureau of Queer Art podcast, and discover how Leah Cupino turns the unpredictable into a stunning reflection of life, identity, and the power of change.

Unfolding Memory, Time, and Self is a powerful solo exhibition by Lucia Znamirowski, presented by The Bureau of Queer Art on Artsy from September 28, 2024, to January 11, 2025. This deeply personal collection invites viewers to explore the fluid nature of memory, identity, and time. Through works like Ghost Stain and The Passcode Only Works Once, Lucia delves into how memories evolve and reshape, mirroring the ways we understand ourselves and the world around us. These themes will be further explored in her upcoming appearance on The Bureau of Queer Art podcast.
