Gustav Klimt.
Harry Clark.
Telopa Treloky.
Vincent Van Gogh.


Four great artists whom Leba admires and respects. With great ambition, he set out to combine each of
their styles, adding elements of Christian mysticism to create a unique voice for this very special show.
Leba did more than that. He went on to paint an epic body of work, in which an almost dream-like world
was created.


With perfect balance, Leba's body of work evokes the familiar while protecting the unknown. Comprised
of paintings both rich in mystery and full of beauty, the works to be exhibited possess a rare, almost
human ability to welcome us to step closer and go beyond the paint and wood and canvas. With
encouragement, they invite us to explore freely, to become a part of their world which exists only in this
fabricated dimension - where trouble, hurt, and confusion are greeted with elegance and grace.


"Painting is the search for truth. Not what your mind sees or what your eye thinks it sees, but what's really
there." Leba


Such truths are exposed in this solid exhibition. Leba's "Visions" is a gift allowing us to see what's really
there. 24K gold leaf is used heavily throughout Leba's gorgeous show. Though visually delicate, his use
of gold screams with an uncanny boldness, highlighting strength in what may be seen as frailty, serving
not only as a through line, but also as a reminder, that gold is a feeling. Experiencing "Visions" will make
you feel like gold.
