Polly Hollyoak

​Polly's large scale paintings present a dialogue between pop and abstraction.
Straddling these boundaries her work explores colour, pattern and layering 
through the medium of painting. Borrowing freely from media imagery in our 
consumer culture it explores notions of consumption and desire by highlighting 
the volume and cacophony of imagery to which we are incessantly exposed. 
Through cropping, juxtaposition and layering images are transformed, and the  
distinction between what is real and what is representational dissolves away.

Polly has successfully completed both a Bachelor of Fine Arts (painting) and a 
Masters of Fine Arts, graduating with distinction in both degrees. 
Her work has
been shown in both solo and group exhibitions locally and internationally.
