Leo Fitzmaurice (b. 1963, Newport, Shropshire UK) lives and works in Liverpool, UK. Rather than adhering to a specific medium or form, Fitzmaurice's practice is deeply rooted in a process of roaming and observation. His focus invariably centres on the everyday—the subtleties so common they are often overlooked. Through the use of found and discarded items, Fitzmaurice confronts themes of consumerism, the repercussions of mass production, and the physical structures onto which information is placed, presented, or contained. Recent solo exhibitions include Misconstructary, The Sunday Painter, London, UK 2024; Enjoy Civic Life, Humber Street Gallery, Hull, UK, 2021; Between You and Me and Everything Else, The Walker Art Gallery, Liverpool, UK, 2018; As Yet, Caustic Coastal, Manchester, UK, 2017; OH V HO, The Sunday Painter, London, UK, 2016; Frieze London Sculpture Park, 2015;
