A multi-media artist, Kate Holland divides her time between Salt Lake City, Los Angeles, and New York City, flowing from one art form to another. Drawing inspiration from the natural world and the built environment, Kate designs and produces jewelry, figure drawings and paintings, custom art frames, photographs and continues to work in film production. “I tend to work with two mediums at any given
time. A painting will inspire a pair of earrings, or a photograph will spark a new color palette to play with. I love the fluidity of moving among different mediums.”
Kate takes a minimal approach to her unique jewelry collection, allowing the materials—their color, singular cuts, unexpected shapes and sizes—to speak for themselves. “In my jewelry, I aim to balance the grand and precious with the everyday. ” Consequently, a Kate Holland piece is as appropriate at a red carpet extravaganza as it is at the office. Kate personally sources all her materials to assure their quality and originality. In addition to precious and semi-precious stones, the Kate Holland Collection also features 14K gold, sterling silver, silk, leather, vintage ribbon and pendants, recycled glass, minerals, shells and handmade beads from Thailand, India and Bali. Because the color, size and shape of the raw materials used in Kate’s jewelry varies, each piece is one-of-a-kind.
“I feel so blessed to be able to pursue my passions and turn them into a viable career. Every time I travel, I meet people living in difficult situations, but who also feel blessed and grateful to be surrounded by beauty and family and to simply be alive. That gratitude for life is what inspires me to create and to share my creations and my knowledge with others.”
