"Mikee Huber is an intuitive abstract painter whose work is informed by built environments, the natural world, and design. With a background in graphic design, she is inspired by abstract views of visual information embedded in such formats such as scientific images, circuit boards, and topographic views of city streets and waterways. She employs variations in color, scale, and contrast to create visual balance in her paintings and reimagine data as realms of possibility.

Huber often works in series as a way to organize her thoughts and ideas. Her Connections series represents how the importance of community and individuals are woven together, even more so as a result of COVID-19 virus which caused many people to be isolated and alone, missing family and friends and having their lives upended. Huber’s acrylic paintings allude to the light at the end of a long tunnel, a place and time that we will be able to safely connect in person again. Viewers can follow the twists and turns connecting the color fields and grids, leading them along a new journey. Her Catalyst series is a result of the hope she felt after learning that the COVID-19 vaccine was available. In these paintings, she attempts to capture the movement, change, consciousness, and imagination generated by catalysts through scraping, adding, and subtracting layers of glitter, inks, and paints including interference paint which shifts color when viewed at different angles. And in her series Controlled Chaos, Huber uses unconventional tools and materials. Tongue depressors, toothpicks, eye droppers, tweezers, and her fingers take the place of the traditional paintbrush to combine layers of paint, glitter, glue, and foil leaf. Fluid movements throughout the compositions beg viewers to see their own stories..” - Mikee Huber
