"Heather Duke has a name that reminds many in her age cohort of 1980s high school megabitches. She has been writing, and collecting interesting crap and memories since the early seventies. At some point she lost her memory and the crap started arranging itself in cymatic patterns around her. Then all the seeds that were planted in the crap started to sprout, vines took over and were then pruned and the Gardener started to have more oversight over the redolent and sprawling life that she calls art. Her current chosen mediums are collage, clowning, writing, performance art, music and frequency, and depth psychology."

"I straddle themes and mediums just as I straddle the extremes of the body. Portraiture grew into the multi-dimensional, transmuting the literal depiction into an internal dissection or dismemberment. Objects became metaphorical representations, often disjointed and broken. Through fragmentation, a visceral representation of an internal state appeared. Masks, seemingly innocuous, were deceptively dangerous; puppets, exposed and imperfect, were sublimely intact; animation and film brought vitality to the surface yet kept the bloodline flush."
|
"I am a flake. We all are. We have small, repeating patterns in our lives, things that when highlighted are funny, endearing, pathologic, and revealing."

The interpretation of Sound Waves... A metaphor to how we have become human experiments." |
