BLAKE ELLIOT SALON AND GALLERY, LLC
DELAND, FLORIDA

Within contemporary culture, we consume information and images without hierarchy. In one scroll through Facebook, you will find a tongue-in-check meme, then a newsworthy injustice, then a series of baby photos, etc. Each update occupies the same amount of space as the next. Our mind is subconsciously making connections and comparisons between the memes, the news, and our personal lives. My creative work consists of iterations of these connections and comparisons. Humor allows me to reimagine and manipulate universal icons, giving me ownership over the content. Although my work is silly, it is also deliberate and thoughtful, simultaneously allowing me to be complacent in and critical of the millennial generation. At Blake Elliot Salon and Gallery, healthy and beautiful hair is our focus. From high volume, curly hair to sleek, precision cuts, our stylists have the most advanced training and techniques. We specialize in color, achieving both natural and high fashion results. And, to keep your hair looking beautiful, we offer the latest treatments to bring your hair to its optimal health.
