Herb and Milly Iris Gallery features new works by Hollie Heller

Hollie Heller: Transcendent Nature
May 1-October 2, 2012

Opening Reception: Saturday, May 12 from 6-8PM

New Jersey artist Hollie Heller repurposes materials and transforms them into unique works reflecting her fascination with textiles, and primitive art and design. Ms. Heller utilizes transparent mailing labels, old stamps, letters, maps, architectural drawings, match book covers, and eyeglass lenses to create unique designs and compositions. Transcendent Nature is the latest collection of works by Hollie Heller.

"One factor that has kept me interested with art making all these years would be my fascination with transforming materials with experimental processes. Creativity and innovation have been my driving forces. If there is a right way and a wrong way to do something, I probably won't be interested. I have been teaching Textile Design and Collage for 25 years and have found no better inspiration than working with students in a studio." —Hollie Heller
