Natalie Holland - Figurative Contemporary Artist

Artistīs statement

My exploration of pleasure, passion, pain, uncertainty, love, life, our own longing for fame and immortality, has motivated my quest for storytelling through figurative art. Sometimes light brings out darkness, sometimes darkness brings out light, but it’s my fascination with human interaction, particularly the difference between appearance and reality that animates my work.

Influenced by Western culture, society and the media, my inspiration is driven by a sometimes brutal, but tender approach of expression that brings my art to canvas. As I observe the world around me, my muse, which are humans, are always the centre of my work. Each piece in itself is a self-contained story related to a greater concept, which enables limitless thoughts, possibilities and emotion. Although sometimes provocative, representational painting is my vessel for my love affair with life.
