Leslie Hewitt — Untitled (Perception)
Leslie Hewitt

Untitled (Perception)

2013

A wooden frame encloses a minimalist composition featuring a cream colored plywood block positioned against a white wall, accompanied by a small stack of papers and a golden sphere resting on the wooden floor plane. The work exemplifies Hewitt's practice of examining perception and spatial relationships through carefully arranged found and fabricated materials. By orchestrating humble, everyday objects within a constructed environment, the artist prompts viewers to reconsider how we perceive scale, value, and presence. The interplay of natural wood tones, white surfaces, and subtle shadows creates a contemplative study in material relationships and visual attention.
