MICHELLE IKI

About


Northern California
born & raised, artist, performing arts enthusiast, dance photographer, and advocate for arts accessibility.

I am a long-time creative and have been photographing dance for 15 years. I graduated from California State University Northridge with a B.A. in Special Major: Visual and Creative Communication.  In 2018, I received a certificate in Social Emotional Arts through the Arts & Healing Initiative (UCLArts & Healing) to further promote the therapeutic benefits of the arts. I believe art is a powerful tool for promoting joy and wellbeing and I do my best to incorporate many different art mediums into my life.
I've served many Bay Area and Los Angeles arts organizations.
Currently, I am working at a community arts organization in the
SF Bay Area. Additionally, I am on the advisory board with the non-profit BEMOVING.
My involvement with BEMOVING  began in 2013 when I first photographed the summer education program in San Francisco. I love supporting artists through attending performances, documenting with photography and most recently, making mini photo zines!
