Leo Bersamina’s (AFF ’10 & ’11) works explore the patterns we create through our living, including relationships with forces of nature and models created through encounters with other people, experiences, travel, shelter, struggle, habit, and with our own genetic makeup.  He has exhibited nationally and internationally and taught at Yale, Stanford, Pont-Aven School of Contemporary Art, Santa Rosa Junior College, and Diablo Valley College, where he is currently a full-time instructor.  Bersamina received his BA in Fine Arts from San Francisco State University and his MFA in Painting from Yale.  He was born in San Francisco and currently lives and works just north of the city.
