Holly Lane Exhibition
Forum Gallery
This event has ended.
Living in Northern California, Holly Lane prefers to work in solitude to germinate the ideas for her iconographic altarpieces. A self-taught wood carver, Lane uses elaborate carving to bring each work into three-dimensions. Many of Lane’s intricate works focus around surreal allegorical scene paintings of modern-day fairy tales and narratives about the role of women in society, spiritual faith, and the environment. These contemporary altarpieces touch on human foibles with incisive humor and delicious wit, she creates results at once intimate and dramatic, tiny and imposing, and always penetrating and perceptive.
