THE ART OF SLEEPING Leah Poller was born in Pennsylvania. She received classical training in sculpture at the prestigious Ecole Nationale Superieure de Beaux Arts, in Paris, France. Partaking of a rich, multi-cultural environment, Poller interacted with foremost members of the international arts communities of France, Spain, Italy and Latin America. Returning to the United States in 1992, she established her studio in Soho and began the series of "101 Beds" which has been exhibited in galleries and institutions in Europe, Mexico, and throughout the United States. In 2010 she began "The Unmade Bed Project", a collection of images of people's unmade beds (www.unmadebedproject.com) which will be the basis for the book "UNMADE BED PROJECT – A Tale Between Two Sheets" (202).

Paris trained sculptor Poller is known for her internationally exhibited 101 Bed Collection and for her sur-realized portraits. As artist, arts-activist, writer and content editor of New Observations, Poller brings a lifetime career in the arts to Harlem where she lives and works.

Aries are head strong, thinkers, and doers. Filled with Mar's energy they finish first, and always fast. To avoid sleeping issues, exercise and burn off the excess.
