Heidi Cody studies the evolution of consumer culture as a grocery researcher and marketing documentarian. She makes sculptures, paintings and drawings featuring abstracted American brands. Aggressively edited logos of companies and products retain just enough information to cue recognition. Graphic and bold, her work lures viewers into the addictive game of guessing each piece. Cody’s work has been featured in Adbusters, Advertising Age, Art in America, ABC News 20/20, the New York Times, Flash Art, the Chicago Tribune, Wired, Playboy, Salon.com and educational textbooks ranging from Psychology, to Designing Brand Identities, to Preble’s Artforms. She has shown at the Brooklyn Museum, the Moscow Biennial, Roebling Hall Gallery, Agnew’s in London, and in the travelling exhibit, “Illegal Art: Freedom of Expression in the Corporate Age.” She recently moved to Savannah, GA, after living exactly 10 years in New York.
