Through the process of cyanotype printing and drawing techniques\, Leandro documents her present day collecting of souvenirs\, knick-knacks\, and natural detritus during her travels aqua melt\, Melissa Leandro\, Jacquard woven cloth\, dye\, foil\, 2018 within and outside of the U.S. She considered the ephemeral nature of personal objects\, both treasured and disposable\, and seeks to recognize how they shape her sense of identity.
