Notably, several of the book's photographs were taken by her late husband, the photographer Robert Frank.\u003cbr\u003eLeaf has described her sculptures as drawings, their wiry forms carving and unfurling into space like exploratory lines on a page. Playing and fighting figures, animals and contraptions in the tinkering spirit of Jean Tinguely emerge from intuitive combinations of brass, copper and tin; found metal rods and blades; wood and paint. Regardless of her subject, Leaf's focus is on visceral whimsy, movement and ceaseless renewal through material and process: \"I think of myself as a dancer making art,\" she says, \"or an aviator making art.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Steidl\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 06\/02\/2026\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9783969993057\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 64","brand":"June Leaf","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52418856878261,"sku":"9783969993057","price":34.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0473\/0804\/6492\/files\/img_ef0ef232-f42e-4195-9a71-832b8556fd4c.jpg?v=1775570615","url":"https:\/\/pastforward.org\/products\/june-leaf-people-9783969993057","provider":"Past Forward","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
