Biography
Heidi Wiren Bartlett is a filmmaker, sculptor, and performance artist from the Great Plains. Her work is concerned with the portrayal, oppression and subversive existence of women in America today. She sees her body as an object of power and vulnerability and she sees Nature and its processes the same way. Together these inspire a practice that illuminates the overlooked and forgotten. Whether creating laborious action or still objects, she blurs the line between public and private; deconstructing notions of gender, race, and corporeality.

She holds an MA and MFA in Intermedia from the University of Iowa. She currently lives and works in Pittsburgh, PA, is a Creative Director for the University Libraries at Carnegie Mellon University, co-founder of Propelled Animals, a transdisciplinary arts and social justice collective, and recent recipient of a Frank-Ratchye Further Fund (FRFF) grant from the STUDIO for Creative Inquiry at Carnegie Mellon University.
