Opening Reception Saturday Saturday January 18, 5-7 pm


Holly Holmes’ most recent work is an exploration of found objects (Findings), which are examined under a microscope. The resulting detailed visual appearance is then rendered in fabric, using a traditional craft methodology of rug weaving. The finished work exhibit both realism and abstraction, moderated by the softness and warmth of the wool and cotton materials used — they straddle a line between comforting and uncanny.
