Nicole Milchak
Some of Nicole’s interests are form without function, formal functions, warm baths, literature, train travel, pink desserts, rain boots, and the month of June. Her art practice is interdisciplinary. she works in drawing, sculptural methods, moving and still image, as well as costuming and installation. She combines these methods in order to construct an alternate reality, a fantastical arena, for the operation of flashback, playback, and backtrack.
