Artist: Alicia Leeke | Location: Columbia, SC
Columbia, SC
Alicia Leeke, a native South Carolinian, started her artistic studies under Steven Nevitt at Columbia College. She is an avid researcher and uses abstract paintings to convey messages about important issues facing the world including climate change, mental health and identity.
Leeke was awarded grants by the Joan Mitchell Foundation in New York City; the South Carolina Arts Commission; and a grant by the Charleston Scientific and Cultural Education Fund to produce a traveling exhibition entitled: View From Under the Microscope: Science-based Learning Through Art. The exhibition educates the non-scientific community about the importance plankton play in our life and why we need to be good stewards of our water bodies.
