Leah Enya Duncan
I’m a mixed media artist who enjoys investigating the fascinating brain connectivity of neurodivergent individuals and translating these insights into installations, printmaking, and painting. My creative process enables me to retrace, reframe, and reflect on my lived experiences, providing both a personal and collective platform to advocate for neurodiversity through visual art. My most recent work explores the autistic mind through Diffuse Tensor Imaging, Language Networks, and the Cellular Construction of white and grey matter tracts in the brain.
This exploration is deeply personal. I am currently on a journey, understanding my own neurodivergence, as well as my sisters. These experiences shape my practice and fuel my commitment to creating art that challenges perceptions and celebrates difference. I am passionate about using art as a tool for communication, empathy, and change — combining science, emotion, and personal narrative to amplify the voices of neurodivergent individuals.
Joining Neuk Collective feels like a natural step in my journey as an artist and advocate. I deeply admire the collective’s commitment to accessibility, community, and representation in the arts. I hope to contribute my skills, research, and lived experience to support its mission of empowering neurodivergent artists and fostering meaningful understanding through creative expression.
