Holly Stevenson makes fluid ceramic forms that explore Sigmund Freud’s favourite ashtray and last cigar as an analytical metaphor. Her vessels diligently embody the ashtray and cigar as though they were two gendered male and female forms, the yonic ovular dish and the cylindrical phallic cigar, as she reconfigures them into a material language of her own. 

Holly graduated from Chelsea College of Art and Design Fine Art MA in 2011 with the generous help of the Stanley Picker Foundation and was awarded the MFI Flat Time House Graduate Award, supported by the John Latham Foundation. Recently she was selected for the Mother Art Prize 2020, had her first solo show at Sid Motion Gallery and been awarded her first public art commission by The CoLAB Temple for The Artist’s Garden.

 

霍利·史蒂文森制作流动的陶瓷形式以此探索西格蒙德·弗洛伊德最喜欢作为分析隐喻的烟灰缸和最后一支雪茄。她的器皿孜孜地体现出烟灰缸和雪茄，仿佛它们分别是男性和女性，阴性的卵形盘子和圆柱形阳性的雪茄。她把它们重新融合成她自己的材料语言。

 

霍利在斯坦利·皮克基金会的慷慨帮助下，于2011年毕业于切尔西艺术与设计学院美术硕士学位，并获得了由约翰·莱瑟姆基金会支持的 MFI Flat Time House 毕业生奖。最近，她入选了2020年 Mother 艺术奖、在Sid Motion画廊举办了她的首次个展，并被CoLAB Temple授予她的第一个用于The Artist’s Garden的公共艺术的委托。
