Juliet Holland
Juliet Holland (1937-2017) was born in Buffalo, New York, and was a longtime resident of lower Manhattan on Bleecker Street, in NYC.
She was an accomplished and widely exhibited mixed media artist. Her technique incorporated using rich layers of sand, paints, clay, powders, metallics and natural elements, which were built up, then scratched and scraped back down, creating layers.
"... my work focuses on the process of transformation - from disintegration and decay to a new form of beauty. The surface reveals an archaeological history of the treatment it has received: rain and earthquake, ancient graffiti, hints of fragmented calligraphy like scars on the skin and soul. Erosion and layering evoking passing time and the continuum of change in nature's infinite progression.
An aspect that has always intrigued me is the mystery that lies within and behind---piercing of layers leading to unexpected discoveries beneath. This combination of deterioration and inflicted markings, construction and destruction, becomes a means of stating both the quality and unity of all things. No endings --- the process of becoming."
She was a co-founder of Art Bridge, a program that established an artist exchange between Japan and the U.S., and ran for twelve years. Holland was formally recognized by the Mayor of Sakai City as the first non-Asian artist in the Sakai City Municipal Art Collection. She was in well over one hundred one-person and group exhibitions, most notably in Tokyo, NYC, Connecticut and Provincetown, MA. Her work is in museums, corporate and private collections.
