BIOGRAPHY
Born and raised in Houston, Texas, LeRoy Howard is a fine-art photographer, based in Berkeley, California. Since 2002 he has shown his work in Northern California, the San Francisco Bay Area, Los Angeles, Tokyo, Kobe and Sakai, Japan. He is currently spending a year living and creating in Tokyo, Japan.
LeRoy photographs himself, nude, with Japanese dance masks, fans and other cultural artifacts. He constructs in-camera multiple exposures into dreamlike or psychological narratives, improvising within unfinished construction and various rooms in his home.
The experience of living in Japan as a foreigner laid the groundwork for his ongoing investigations into the construction of individual and social identity. His recent work explores the uses of narrative and the personal experience within the built space in defining the self.
