Kaleeka Bond was born in Virginia and grew up in Southern California. She received her MFA in 2008 from Laguna College of Art and Design (LCAD) in Laguna Beach, CA and has been exhibiting her work in California since 1999. Following graduation, Kaleeka went on to teach Fundamentals of Color and Composition at LCAD. In November 2008, Kaleeka Bond joined the Fairhaven Committee which organizes the annual Fairhaven Mausoleum Art Exhibition in Santa Ana, CA. In Spring 2010, Kaleeka Bond taught Art Fundamentals to 2nd – 5th graders at Top of the World Elementary School, Laguna Beach, CA and is currently teaching Beginning Drawing at Saddleback Community College in Mission Viejo, CA. While continuing to exhibit work, Kaleeka and her husband look forward to the launch of their clothing line, Adinkra Clothing Company.

Influenced by behaviors in society and the impingement of mass media, she hopes to counter the effects of these disconnections with social awareness through her artwork. When interviewed about her work, Kaleeka stated; “Art has a way of opening our eyes to things that we refuse to see. I want my work to compel people to see beyond the superficial and seek the profound, ultimately allowing them to live beyond what they think of as the obvious and understand that individualism and the ability to communicate shape the uniqueness of the world.”
