A HYBRID HUMANITY

Heidi Taillefer began drawing at the age of three. During a decade of private art lessons as a child, she developed strong skills in watercolor. Self-taught in oils and acrylics, her style is strongly influenced by surrealism, combined with a keen interest in technology and biology. By the mid-80's her work took on the markings of this obsession, with technological development throughout society her imagery reflects what is now widely recognized as a growing hybridization of humanity with technology. While outpacing the evolution of our bodies and minds, Taillefer's work examines the fact that a merger with technology does not insulate us from fundamental aspects of the human condition.
