Toile de Jouy
Holtry’s paintings depict animals that few people appreciate, such as hyenas, insects, and rats. Often wondering why it is that people advocate equality between humans, yet so freely discriminate in our opinions of animals, her work addresses our prejudicial attitudes toward these animals. Holtry’s inspiration also comes from an ongoing interest in the decorative arts and textiles.
