Artist Bio: Catalina has always had her artistic practice deeply connected to nature—its chaos, beauty, and transformation. Themes of life and death create a tension that permeates her work. She is inspired by altered landscapes, which manifest some of her most compelling pieces. For Leichner, painting serves as a path to self-knowledge and spiritual exploration, and she aims to transmit this passion through her brush and various mediums.
