Katarina Holbrough
(She/Her)Tkaronto, Ontario
"A projected world of nocturnal ephemeral spaces, Holbrough’s work delineates omitted realities using liminal forms to confront the unseen. The transcorporeal environment engulfes the canvas, while only specific elements are detailed and fleshy. The sea of phthalo green illuminates the dark night scene. You are brought into an untethered world, where you are forced to confront your ignorance."
Mixed-media artist working with oil, acrylic, ink, sculpture, and site-specific installations. Katarina holds a BFA in Criticism and Curatorial Practice, minoring in Drawing and Painting. Her work has been displayed across Canada and Internationally. With a most recent show at She Said Gallery, Toronto, and Art on a Postcard, London, UK. Holbrough works with themes of classicism, femininity, and religion.
