Today’s generous contributor is Artist, Holly Addi, based in Salt Lake City, Utah. Holly is working on a new collection and had a few of her new pieces photographed in her home last week and she was generous enough to share them with us here.

Holly:
This shoot was a documentation of being at home, where one truly portrays their authenticity, during a time of being quarantined and not having the outside distractions of the world.
What I discovered is that even through the heaviness I found it to be a magical time,
it was as if we all said to the hectic outside world - just a minute, as I did when my 3 girls were toddlers and I needed a second to just think.
As an artist, I wanted to create a new collection that was based around the spirit of this and something that I hope would inspire others to create their own place of solidarity and beauty where their home becomes their 'Basilica,' the name of my newest collection.
'Basilica,' in the Roman Catholic and Greek Orthodox churches, is a title of honour given to churchbuildings that are distinguished either by their antiquity or by their role as international centres of worship because of their association with a major saint, an important historical event, or, in the Orthodox Church, a national patriarch.
The symbolism for me is that our own homes should be our 'Basilica' to us that resonates not only externally but on an internal level. We are the saint to our homes.
Your home is where you reside, rest, nourish, and feed your body and soul. Creating rituals in your daily existence within your own temple (space) and surrounding yourself by beauty is an honor to the gift of life.
While I felt scared at times during this pandemic for this virus that has been plaguing our globe, the magic was to find the beauty in our simple daily lives in our place of dwelling that we call 'home,' or in other words, where our spirit resides~ our 'Basilica.'
We must all do what we can to effect change! /
We are offering contemporary technique classes during the month of June! /
