Holly Carr has become widely known for her unique style of silk painting. Her bold satirical images explore human interactions, sexuality and social stereotypes. Holly’s sense of humour underlies all of her work pointing a finger at the absurd as well as the touching. Not one to be constrained Holly also explores outside of the two dimensional world of the framed painting. Huge installations, ranging from the “Terrarium” to multi banner sculptures arranged three dimensionally in space are as well part of Holly’s repertoire. Holly has also ventured into theatre, beginning with designing for “Little Lame Prince” and "When Dinosaurs Dine by Moonlight" both of which were productions of Mermaid Theatre of Nova Scotia. Ever exploring Holly took these experiences and painted live with an ad-libbed monologue in Will Power Theatre’s production of “Private Views” performed live in the main gallery of the Art Gallery of Nova Scotia, where her dialogue with the audience was woven into three other one act plays taking place in the gallery space. Holly is in the early stages of planning a silk opera.

Holly toured across Canada with Stuart Mclean and the Vinyl Cafe during November-December 2005. She painted live on stage during stories and music. In September of 2006 she performed with world renowned violinist Min Lee in Singapore.
