India Leire is a visual artist born in England and based in Paris. She is a graduate of the École nationale supérieure des Beaux-Arts in Paris, where she studied sculpture in the studios of Giuseppe Penone and Patrice Alexandre. Her practice centres on the living world and biodiversity. Her work draws inspiration in particular from nature, real and imaginary botany, as well as mythology, to create hybrid sculptures blending plant and animal forms. Her works are created using natural materials such as plaster, clay and ceramics, and explore the notions of transformation, metamorphosis and coexistence between humans and their environment. A winner of several awards and a guest at numerous artist residencies in France, Greece, the Netherlands and the United Kingdom, India Leire exhibits regularly in France and internationally. Through her creations, she celebrates the beauty of the natural world whilst raising awareness of the importance of preserving biodiversity.
