Meet the Artist
Portrait of Hollis.jpg

Hello, and welcome to Set Apart Fine Art!

 

My name is Hollis Hunter (he/him/his). 

 

I am a mixed-media artist specializing in Painting and Sculpture. ​I received my Bachelor of Fine Arts in Art & Design with distinction at the University of Alberta in 2020.

My favorite way to experience art is within community. I self-identify as a queer and transgender man, and am determined to uplift the gender diverse community through my artistic practice. I have worked as a professional artist at dozens of public events and communal creative spaces.

 

Here you will find original handmade artwork, décor, and functional homewares that enrich everyday experiences. I live and create out of Amiskwaciwâskahikan (Edmonton), Alberta, in Treaty Six Territory.

Liven up your space with art!

Artist Statement

The overwhelming transphobia of the current political climate frequently smothers my sense of community, power, and passion. Reading Vivek Shraya’s call for this exhibition reminded me that I am not the only one feeling this way, and that I can create an art installation that reconnects our community with trans joy.

 

Free pin-buttons and postcards are available as part of this artwork. The buttons feature artwork by local queer and trans artists, courtesy of The QUILTBAG. Display and share these generously. You are not alone, and everyone is welcome to share in the joy and struggles of gender-diverse persons, lives, and communities.
