About Alexis Pike:
Alexis Pike is an Idaho native and calls upon the geography of her genes for inspiration. Her most recent work, Human Nature, is influenced by the dichotomy of the two regions of Idaho where I was raised: the scenic basin of the Sawtooth Mountain range and the small community of Idaho Falls. The work explores how communities stake a territorial claim on the landscape many would call extraordinary and place it within the conventional geography of the community that is ordinary. Alexis currently lives in Portland Oregon, where she teaches at several colleges. Hide Artist Biography
