Per-Oskar Leu uses several media – bronze, stone sculpture, oil painting, video art and ready-made – but none in particular.
He takes advantage of historic sources and west culture’s references, deduced for example from literature or films, in order to give different keys to understand nowadays political and social issues.
Furthermore, all of his works challenge the concept of authenticity in Art. Other artist’s inspirational matters are his native country and youth subcultures, which the artist has always felt close to, because joyned in the Punk hardcore movement.
