Olivia Holdsworth is an artist specializing in printmaking based out of Cleveland, Ohio, USA. She graduated with her BFA in printmaking at Boston University's School of Visual Arts as of May 2022.
Olivia discovered printmaking in undergrad at Boston University when she took a tour of the print shop, felt the siren's call of the presses, fell madly in love, and never looked back.
Her work revolves around topics of personal significance such as queerness, chronic pain, sexual assault, identity, belonging, nostalgia, transience, and permanence. She also enjoys exploring different folktales, fairytales, myths, and legends from around the world and nature.
When she's not making art (and sometimes when she is!) she enjoys thrifting, asking if she can pet someone's dog, and experimenting with new ways to get ink out of denim.
