Leslie Rosario-Olivo is a book-artist, educator, and musician based in New York City. They present their works in book-form, workshops, readings, performances, and recordings.
Their publishing work is marked by the use of alternative book forms and democratic multiples to present ideas around spirituality, ecology, and social problems. They are interested in deconstructionism, and the exposure of assumptions underlying cultural absolutes. Throughout their work, there's a discernible blend of softness, grit, and curiousity - elements employed equally to disarm and engage readers, evoking a sense of settling and provocation with gestures, words, and images.Photo credits: Oswaldo Garcia
