The Redmond Arts Commission presents an exhibit of artwork by Holly Campbell at the Old Redmond Schoolhouse Community Center, 16600 NE 80th Street. The exhibit runs from October 26 to December 26 and features selections from two bodies of work exploring ideas surrounding family.

Seattle Artist Holly Campbell’s accomplishments include a Masters of Fine Arts from Washington State University, an extensive background in ceramics and involvement in a number of projects in the fields of drawing and sculpture. Her work presented in this show focuses on two recent series of works “Self-Portraits as Ancestral Karma” and “Family Portraits”. Both series work together to explore the ideas of family.

Upon reflecting on her work, Holly Campbell stated, “Family is something that has always been quite abstract to me. It has mostly felt like something I once had and misplaced, leaving impressions that I have chosen to explore through this body of work.”

The public is invited to an artist reception with the artist on Friday, November 18th from 7 to 9pm.
