Loie Hollowell’s body of work is an expression of her sensuality as a woman going through the different stages of pregnancy from conception to birth to motherhood. It is this experiential origin that makes her explicit abstractions of the human form so powerful — paintings that in reality are sculptures. Most of the images you see are not a flat canvas but a three-dimensional object playing with the perception of illusory space and real space.

Her work is phenomenological—as if symmetry, color, and light are painted into the surface. She probes at our self-awareness, our sense of being.Emma Enderby
