about the artist ↴

Middlesbrough based artist Holland Simpson has been drawing since they were a child and creating narrative driven art since 2017. They take inspiration from fantastical worlds and stories, old comic books and cartoons, and their own experiences being LGBT and neurodivergent. They often see themselves as stepping into tiny fictional niches in media and fleshing them out beyond recognition (which is cool… if they'd remember to write everything down).

Holland is currently completing a Masters Degree in Comics and Graphic Novels at Teesside University.
