INTERVIEW
Dj Margaret is joined with artists DIA FELIX and DESIREE HOLMAN and SF Film Society programmer SEAN UYEHARA about their current projects.
DESIREE HOLMAN is an Oakland-based interdisciplinary artist, primarily working with sculpture, drawing, and video. Her process involves manipulating figurative props and costumes in role-playing scenarios. The work questions what games of make-believe can tell us about our behaviors in the ‘real’ world. Holman was recently awarded a SFMOMA’s SECA award, and in 2007 she received Artadia: The Fund for Art and Dialogue award. The Hammer Museum in LA mounted her first solo exhibition in 2009. Holman’s second solo exhibition ‘Heterotopias’ is on view at the Berkeley Art Museum’s MATRIX gallery, curated by Elizabeth Thomas. Her work has been exhibited internationally at Sao Paulo Museum of Modern Art, Hessel Museum, Yerba Buena Center for the Arts, Los Angeles Museum of Contemporary Art; Milan’s BnD, Toronto’s YYZ, The Hudson Valley Center for Contemporary Art; and Lisa Boyle Gallery in Chicago. In 1999, after completing her BFA in sculpture at CCA, Desirée attended the Skowhegan School of Painting and Sculpture. She graduated with her MFA from UC Berkeley in 2002. Her work has been reviewed in Artforum, Los Angeles Times, NY Arts Magazine, Artillery, San Francisco Chronicle, and Artweek. Holman is represented by Silverman, San Francisco.
