About
Heidi Weiss is a painter based in Kalamazoo, Michigan. Her work explores memory, media, and emotional residue through layered imagery, symbolic objects, and quiet nods to the domestic. She draws from found photographs, paused television stills, and fragmented personal recollections to create scenes that feel both familiar and elusive—like a memory surfacing, then slipping away. Her compositions often blend realism with abstraction, using shifts in scale, material, and structure to evoke the instability of what we remember.
She holds a BFA and MA in Painting from Western Michigan University and an MFA in Fiber from Cranbrook Academy of Art.
