Le Fleming is a self taught artist, originating from New Zealand and currently based in London. Primarily from a fine art persuasion, he finds himself now being adopted by street art communities around the world. His style is unique in that he marries together these two different practices of traditional portraiture and a linear street art aesthetic.

Le Fleming often approaches his subject in a satirical manner; developing his central character(s) and narrating through their physical embodiments and associations. The canvas too is key to Le Fleming's work, choosing to work with pre-existing objects such as car bonnets or fridge doors. Anything that is old and metal fits the bill, but particularly objects with typography or defects are of interest to him. The character studies are usually contextually linked to these found objects, using their inherent qualities to provide the environment and influences in which the central character(s) exist.

Recent group collaborations include; ‘Artists for Dalai Lama’ Krauts Gallery, Köln & Frankfurt (2009); ‘Jam 3’ Vitry-sur-Seine (2010); 'Cluster Fits 5' London (2010); live art jam at the Carrousel du Louvre, Paris (2010); ‘London to Lille’ Vertikall Gallery, Lille (2010); 'Aparts Summer Show' London (2011); 'Configured' Signal Gallery, London (2011); 'Generations' Chelsea Town Hall & Saatchi Gallery, London (2011); 'One' Underdog Gallery, London Bridge (2011).
