| Michael Mykola Haleta (born 7 July 1978) (x-WZT Hearts) is an intermedia artist who lives and works in Atlantic Highlands, NJ. Haleta's comic collages deal with destroying comics and using the remnants as building blocks for the construction of new textured masses, blobs and 2-3D landscapes. Having grown up in the suburbs of NJ, the cross pollination of pre-90's (non-CGI) B-movie special effects, comic books, radical cartography, baseball card designs, and Ukrainian Easter egg designs (Pysanky) helped him to condition both his eyes and sensibilities towards design. Michael has been constructing his comic collages for the past decade as part of an ongoing series, entitled, "Futuristic Textures from the Future".

His comic collage work has been published in various publications such as: Tokion, SF Weekly, Shout NY and Giant Robot.... |
