Interdisciplinary Artist & Designer

About

b. 1986, HK.

 

Hailey Ciesluk is an interdisciplinary artist and designer who creates art for the eclectic, the colorful, and the mildly chaotic. Based out of Grand Rapids, MI, Hailey got her BFA in 2020 (good timing) with an emphasis in Illustration and a minor in Writing from Grand Valley State University. Her work explores the vital connection between creativity and self-care, and encourages viewers to see art as a healing medium. Hailey’s art practice is based in pointillism (i.e. an obscene amount of dots), though subject matters includes social activism, literature and/or folklore, and her experience as a queer person. Her work has been shared at events such as ArtPrize and the Festival for the Arts. Other passions of Hailey’s include art history, choreography, and exploring+protecting our beautiful planet.
