Currents includes six of Holly Fay’s impressive large-scale (5 feet x 9 feet) drawings from the series of the same name, and a selection of pieces from her Water Graphs project.

The exhibition focus is water—the wonder and power of this natural system, its phases, forms and cycles, and the hydrosphere connecting and sustaining the planet.

Holly Fay’s drawing, painting and multidisciplinary practice focuses on the interconnectedness of natural phenomena, correlations in ecological systems, the more-than-human, phenomenology and the lived environment.

Fay received an MFA from the University of Ulster in Belfast and a BFA at the University of Regina, Canada.

Fay is based in Regina, SK, Canada, on Treaty 4 lands situated on the territories of the nêhiyawak, Anihšināpēk, Dakota, Lakota, and Nakoda, and the homeland of the Métis/Michif Nation, where she teaches painting and drawing in the Faculty of Media, Art and Performance at the University of Regina.

Exhibited nationally and internationally, Fay’s work has received numerous grant awards, and is represented in private and public collections.
