Heike Blakley
Before man could speak, they communicated with pictures, gestures and sound.
As time progresses; Technology, politics, race, gender, religion etc. has made authentic communication and feelings of collectiveness have become next to impossible.
With the use of, ” Alien like,” figures in a majority of my work. I hope to be able to effectively diminish the possibility of misinterpretation and increase the likelihood of getting messages across through my work.
aside from the fact that I have a slight obsession with Aliens; I felt it could be an interesting way to showcase the feelings of alienating others while being Alienated ourselves.
Highly motivated creatively.
My commitment to being a life long learner has provided me the opportunities to gain understanding in various art forms and constructively implement them into my work.
I truly believe, “In a reality where nothing is real, anything is possible. So I want to try everything.”
