Saskia Fleishman

Saskia Fleishman (b. 1995, Baltimore, MD) graduated from the Rhode Island School of Design in 2017 with a BFA in Painting. Her paintings offer a metaphysical connection to the world by preserving the spirit of the landscape where she is from and other natural places she has spent time in, honoring the transient nature of life while acknowledging the eternal relationship we have to the universe, in hopes of finding transcendence and harmony. 

 

She has been an artist in residence at The Jentel Foundation, Tongue River Artist Residency, Vermont Studio Center, Wassaic Project, PADA Studios, ChaNorth, and Trestle Studios, and a curator in residence at Otis College of Art and Design. Fleishman’s work has been exhibited at Galleri Urbane (Dallas, TX), Red Arrow (Nashville, TN), Pentimenti Gallery (Philadelphia, PA), Dinner Gallery (New York, NY), Unit London (London, UK), Goucher College (Baltimore, MD), and The Museum of Contemporary Art (Arlington, VA), among others. Her work has been featured in Make Magazine, ArtMaze, Root Quarterly, Friend of the Artist, and Galerie Magazine. Saskia is based in Philadelphia, PA.
