Holly Atkinson
Holly Atkinson is a sculptor based in Guelph, Canada.
She received her BA from the University of Toronto and Sheridan College. She also studied under Mac Avoy in Paris, France.
Her sculptures examine people around us and the environment that surrounds.
She combines texture, space, form and colour to involve the viewer to look deeper.
Faces, people and looking past what is perceived is her continual search.
The lost wax casting process reveals every detail in bronze from the wax original to finishing to patina.
Each sculpture takes 6 weeks to complete with small editions.
Her mixed media torso wall sculptures tell stories concerning the earth, nature, conservation,fragility and women.
They are created with gypsum, texture, fabric and paint.
Her work has been exhibited in Iceland, South Africa, Europe and North America.
Holly is a member of the Sculptor's Society of Canada, The Medallic Art Society of Canada and the Federation of Canadian Artists.
