Mark Leysen’s art has been exhibited worldwide in numerous group and solo exhibitions, including at the Hammer Museum at UCLA, the Laguna Art Museum, the Orange County Museum of Art, Chapman University, the Irvine Fine Arts Center, Grand Central Art Center in Santa Ana, and the Museo de Arte in Querétaro, Mexico.Leysen's abstract paintings evoke physical space, capturing both the experience and the emotional imprint it leaves on memory. A vibrant sense of color and rhythm shapes the compositions, while the geometric forms provide balance and harmony.Art writer Dr. Roberta Carasso states:“Leysen’s interaction of space, movement in a variety of directions, enhances the surface quality and creates the illusion of multiple planes. The already large image seems even more immense because our eyes continue moving upward and outward, following each shape beyond the space of the canvas.”
