Sobre el Artista

Holly Warren Diana Beatrice Frances Warren (Holly) b.1966 currently living in Monza Italy Contacts: hbfwarren@yahoo.com Website-www.hbfwarren.com Blog - http://hbfwarren.blogspot.it/ Video Sharing- https://vimeo.com/user38929797 I am a multimedia artist working with digital photography, painting, collage, 3D installations and video. I am currently working as an atelierista in an international school in Milan. I use digital photography as a window onto reality and then reinterpret it by editing and adding my own vision of reality through painting. These techniques put together illustrate the coming together of my inner vision and the world around me. They meet in my collage pieces. Colour form and line are my guides; they provide dynamism and engage me in transmitting my view of life: Vibrant, energetic, fast and colourful. I work on making my subject matter come alive to the eyes of my viewers and engage them in sharing my humoristic attitude toward the environment. Influences in my art making are deeply rooted in working closely with two to eleven year old children. Their spontaneous, enthusiastic and experimental attitude are of great inspiration. In the adult world Alejandro Duran, Aurora Robson and Sonia Falcone inspire and influence my work.
