The Opening Reception of Holly Holmes’ exhibit REVERBERATIONS | Epiphany Center for the Arts

Chicago
Arts
Painting
Attend the opening reception for Holly Holmes’ exhibitREVERBERATIONS on Friday, December 6, 6:00-9:00pm. Since 2011, Holly Holmes has explored the tension between abstraction and representation. Her work resonates with the facts, readings, and translations of life’s elements, which she conveys through recurring themes, forms, textures, and colors. Travel, whether daily commutes or overseas trips, plays a crucial role in her art. Holmes meticulously chronicles her experiences, translating them into paintings and tufted rugs. She creates sketches on the go, using them in the studio alongside her memories and emotions to produce images that reflect direct observation and emotional resonance. Holmes’ process involves constant examination and reexamination, which extends to her painting and color mixing with yarn. Recently, she has been creating paired tufted and painted works, allowing her to make creative decisions fluidly. While acrylic paint offers immediacy and ease of experimentation, working with yarn is more time-consuming, requiring careful blending and consideration. By alternating between these mediums, Holmes can test an idea in one place and realize and refine it in the other. These works are exhibited in conversation with each other and Holmes invites gallery visitors to share in their reverberations. Make sure to RSVP for this amazing event! Golden Hour at Epiphany: Stop by Epiphany for Golden Hour beforehand for free live music, drinks and lite bites in the Café Bar! Doors open at 5pm with 1/2 priced bottles of wine and other specials until 7:00pm Golden Hour Menu + Music Schedule Please note that outside food or beverages are not permitted in the venue.
