Ferried Away

Leslie Kerby works across media—primarily drawing, collage, printmaking, and video—to create both representational and abstract works in series. Kerby has exhibited widely in New York galleries and art venues, including Paula Cooper Gallery, Frosch & Co Gallery, SarahCrown Gallery, and BRIC Arts NYC. Co-Director of Project ARTspace (NYC) since 2022, Kerby published the limited edition, A Modicum of Mankind, a collaboration with New York writing John Talbird, through Norte Maar Gallery for Collaborative Projects in the Arts in New York. Her limited edition publication, Closing Ceremony, a collaboration with writer Paul D'Agostino PhD, accompanied a series of on-going public art installations in France, Italy and New York City (to date). Peanuts on the Tracks, a compendium of poetic stories and oil paintings, reflects upon her experiences as a social worker in rural Virginia in the 70s. Her work is in the permanent collections of the Bradbury Museum (Jonesboro, AK) and Columbia University School of Social Work (NYC).
