Holly Roberts
Holly Roberts painted photographs that plumb the experience of a contemporary artist-woman-mother-citizen. Its dark in there, isn't it? But step inside. Go ahead. Because they may seem familiar, these strange and sweet, sad and scary figures of Holly Robert's imagining. Like dreams that suddenly create a window into some dimly lit truth, her muscular hybrids of painting and photography resonate with something that transcends reason, something as deeply sensible as it is unexplainable. There is no judgment, no exploitation. There's only quiet recognition of the complexity of modern life, the lengths to which we go to survive and the emotional slipknots we tie around our own psyches. In the end, Roberts is kind but unflinching. And in her vision, we can't help but see ourselves.
