Holly Savas – San Francisco, CA
Instagram

Holly Savas is an artist whose work is driven by combining dissonant elements that exaggerate the visual contrasts she sees in the world around her. Creative journal Mud Season Review writes that Savas’ Containers series “engages with the tension created when modern, contemporary colors and patterns are paired with more primitive shapes” as an exploration of the contrast between old and new.

Originally from Madison, Wisconsin, Holly has worked from her home studio in San Francisco’s North Panhandle neighborhood for almost two decades. She has also lived in Spain, Southern California and New York City. Holly shows her work in the Bay Area and throughout California, and recently won the Sustainable Arts Foundation Finalist Award given to working artists with families.
