"The star of the show is undoubtedly Graham Holland's digitally manipulated photomontages. In his world, the city isn't dark and brooding but light, buzzing and congested. He manages to capture both the optimism and the frustration of living in a metropolis where dreams can either be realised or crushed in an instant. He's an artist to watch for the future"
Grant Gibson - Editor of Blueprint / Aug 2003

Since 2000 Graham has taken a varied career path. In the early part of Graham's art career he worked mainly in arts management and promotions. Graham has created and developed art fairs, art markets, art galleries (alternative & public funded) and music & film events, aswell as acting as a art consultant and mentor. After a slow start on his personal artwork Graham began to create more work and exhibit widely, which also lead to many large scale high profile commissions. Alongside this Graham developed his teaching skills working firstly as a resident artist and course programmer for gifted and talented students. This work pulled towards working as lead artist & project worker on various community based arts projects. Eventually Graham found himself teaching at two EBD school's in Hertfordshire, providing GCSE art, geography, photography and ict. Currently Graham is in the second year of building a new business in virtual media solutions and developing other business interests.
