Holly Schmidt
Holly Schmidt is an artist, curator and educator that moves across disciplinary boundaries to explore human relations with the natural world. She uses methods such as walking, interviews, and photo/ video documentation to immerse herself in different sites and situations where questions and ideas emerge. These explorations lead to the creation of projects that involve a diverse range of collaborators to create social spaces and events that bring people together around shared ecological concerns. Her exhibitions, projects and residencies include: COV Engineering Artist-in-Residence (2020-2023), The Future is Floating (2020) Other Sights & Sydney Festival, Sydney AUS, Mantle (2019) Art Gallery of Evergreen, Coquitlam, Vegetal Encounters Residency (2019-) UBC Outdoor Art Program, Vancouver, Quiescence (2019) Burrard Arts Foundation, Vancouver, Pollen Index (2016) Charles H. Scott Gallery, Vancouver, Till (2014/15) Santa Fe Art Institute, Santa Fe. Schmidt is grateful to live and work in Vancouver, Canada, the unceded territories of the xʷməθkʷəy̍əm, Skwxwú7mesh and səl̓ílwətaʔɬ Nations.
