Welcome to Jean Paul Leon's Studio

In the North -the West- consumed by consumption, by money, speculation, techno-gadgetry and xenophobia, we are blindly contributing, like puppets on a string, to the pathetic dilapidation of this planet. Let's change our subverted values and eradicate this predatory system.

to breathe, to dream, to think,
to delight, to inform, to transform,
to make Art… until our bones
return to the bottom of the sea
and our spirits diffuse
into the freedom
of the total void.
