Leslie Poteet Busker is an American artist working in architectural abstraction and figuration, based in Charlotte, North Carolina. Drawing from a background in interior architecture, her practice investigates containment, threshold, and presence through a restrained material language. Vertical structure, controlled surface, and disciplined composition form the foundation of her work, where density and silence exist in deliberate tension. Busker's paintings consider the human figure not as narrative, but as vessel - a site of interiority, endurance, and quiet strength. Through reduction and repetition, her work engages questions of what is held, what is concealed, and what remains when excess is removed. Her paintings are held in public, private and corporate collections across the United States, Europe, and Japan. Her work has been collected by Marriott International and featured in Modern Luxury Interiors Chicago, Atlanta Homes & Lifestyles, and Charlotte Home Design & Decor.
