Gambetta Studio
Jo Holland is a contemporary artist who redefines photography in a way that engages people’s perspectives by creating timeless,
transformative pieces. Through her love of nature she blends the realms of analogue and digital processes, often without a camera or film to produce work that is both impactful yet versatile. Her work breathes life into any setting.
She was first introduced to photography by her father and went on to study its origins and early experimental photography. Inspired by the likes of Man Ray and László Moholy-Nagy she continues to research and explore alternative ways to record light onto light sensitive paper.
Nature and nurture are what guides Jo’s practices which she explores intuitively through meditation and yoga. Her mindful processes bear fruits to art that encourages the observer to connect and reconnect with the oneness of self and surroundings. It celebrates beauty, elegance and grace and is centred around what brings Jo joy.
Jo is happiest around all life from animals to insects, loves to travel, is not shy of new experiences and relishes pure laughter.
Currently based in London, Jo has exhibited across the world from New York to Shanghai and has been published in the 'History - The Mag Collection'. Further information can be found in exhibitions.
Jo welcomes you to explore her site.

The transcendental beauty of Jo's images is due to the combination of both transmissive and reflected light being recorded onto photographic paper.”
