Alicia Leeke

Alicia Leeke, a original South Carolinian, is a painter and artist working in Columbia and Charleston, South Carolina. She first became known for her post-impressionistic style and engagement of Fauvism. Her artwork is distinctive for its abstemious brush painting technique, gentle distortion of linear perspective, and use of thick extraction and brush strokes.

She became widely known for her curated exhibition, View From Under the Microscope, which uses phytoplankton to garner vigilance about climate change and ocean acidification.
