BIO:
Based in Los Angeles, Laurel Holloman is known for her vibrant use of color and larger-than-life paintings capable of capturing tumultuous emotions with a vivid movement that create a three-dimensional illusion.
“I feel my paintings have a secret language born out of science and my obsessiveness with the how and why we are here. I paint through abstraction with subtle hints of elemental imagery; the sky, water, fire, earth, a bird flying, cells reproducing, or a celestial bed of stars. I am obsessed with metallics and textures and use playful brushstrokes that give paintings a third dimension while keeping movement to enhance the emotion.”
This series was chosen from a 2019 Exhibition titled Memory and Movement that premiered in Paris at Galerie Joseph and was chosen by Arts in The City as one of the summer’s top ten exhibitions in Paris. Holloman’s paintings range from detailed portraits to large abstracts
some as wide as 3 meters. She has been featured in many publications including Architectural Digest Italy, Arts Life, Art Rabbit, News Art Today, Art for Breakfast, Milano Today, La Repubblica, Arts in the City, Artistik Rezo, Be Art Magazine, and Digital Journal. Holloman has had 9 solo exhibitions including a solo Museum show in Amsterdam at Museum Jan and other groups exhibitions including The 2013 Venice Biennale in which her painting “Swell” was featured in the Biennale catalogue. In 2017, a series of detailed flower paintings were chosen from Holloman’s Fertile Ground collection to be exhibited in the Museo Ateneo Madrid, Spain. She is the winner of the Banco Ciudad Award from the Contemporary Biennale
of Argentina for her painting The Reach. She is excited to be exhibiting at Pershing Square and has had studios in the Toy Factory building downtown Los Angeles and the Jefferson Arts District.
She is currently preparing a new solo exhibition called Deep Dive that will open on July 7th 2021 at The Bankside Gallery in London.
