Holly Wheatcroft's ceramic collages offer a playful take on the still life genre. Glazed stoneware pieces are featured in abstract compositions that are layered with historical, contemporary and personal imagery. Often pictured within a flattened picture plane, objects seem to float in space or look as if they are about to spill out of their frames. Holly fuses traditional and popular culture with references to current artistic clay practices; in particular, the artist’s work celebrates the painterly and textural glazes so often highlighted in contemporary ceramics.

Holly is proud to have been a participating artist for the Casey House Art with Heart 2024. She has participated in numerous exhibitions, both solo and group including Nuit Blanche, Peak Gallery, John B. Aird Gallery, IDS, Propeller Gallery, and TOAE. Holly was a member of the Toronto Public Art Commission (TPAC), a mentor with the SCCC Entrepreneurship Hub, was the recipient of an OCADU excellence in teaching award, and continues to be an active member within various communities as an arts educator.
