Leah Petrucci is a Calgary-based glass artist whose practice spans sculpture, installation and interactive work. She graduated with Distinction from the Alberta University of the Arts (AuArts) in 2010 and has continued to develop a practice that centers on the themes identity, memories and the idea of home. By using color, pattern, and playful forms, her work evokes childhood games and toys, sparking both familiarity and joy.
Leah is increasingly focused on creating interactive experiences that invite viewers to become participants, encouraging social connection and a sense of belonging. She believes that play is essential not only for creativity, but also for building community and fostering shared experiences.
Sustainability is also central to her process, and she frequently incorporates recycled glass bottles and other reclaimed materials into her work, giving them new life in sculptural and architectural forms.
This approach is reflected in her recent projects, including City Scape (2023), Wild Ice (2024), and Serenity Passage (2025). Each of these works highlights her ability to produce immersive, large-scale installations that resonate with diverse audiences while offering moments of fun, discovery and togetherness.
