For The Love of Art, All Titties should be Casted in Gold – Body Positivity with Holly 

 

Holly and Julie discuss body positivity through art. 

FOR ART SAKE  – all titties should be cast in gold 

YES YES YES HOLLY! BOOM!

 

Meet one of my good friends @hollyogdenart, she started a movement @seededsunflowers She has been painting a variety of sunflowers around the Perth area, all the way to Margaret river… I think we should take this gorgeous lady’s movement around the world.

 

She paints sunflowers because she believes they bring positivity. She started painting some murals spreading happiness, and it just snowballed into this huge project. Practicing her art skills on walls, just to make people happy, and it worked.

Holly’s art has been shifting a little bit, and after this gorgeous post, it inspired me to invite her on our podcast Slow Secrets TV, for an episode on Body positivity through art.


Her project is organically changing from murals to casting body parts,…


  • Gold is up there, boobs are amazing, everyone should worship them. I was a breastfeeding mom, they have multiple uses 😉 ,…

  •  It’s like pausing time, in 30 years, we’ll be able to have them there, and say look how amazing they look.


Holly combines body positivity and art, she painted 9 women naked and had them run around in the forest.

I’m a self-taught artist residing in the Northern suburbs of Perth, Western Australia.

Originally from Manchester, England I began painting whilst living overseas in Lombok, Indonesia, and Koh Phangan, Thailand.

I am a trained PADI divemaster and began by painting abstract landscapes and obscure marine animals.

I am a single working mother who paints in any free time I get with the hopes that my work can somehow bring joy to those who see it.

I enjoy being community-focused and bringing communities together. That is the aim I have with my project “seeded sunflowers”. It gets people out and about, searching for the sunflowers I paint. Bringing people together and hopefully making people smile as they find them.

I recently created an artwork which was a collaborative piece with Aboriginal Artist Alan Ninyette @indigenous_designs in Brisbane. We auctioned this piece off at the start of the year which helped raise $5000 for the NSW Australian bush fire disaster.

I aim to take the project as far as it can take me as I truly enjoy painting each flower.

Reflections of ourselves and what we see vs what the world sees are so different. I get asked why sunflowers and nudity?


Sunflowers are a beacon for positivity, they hold light and power. Power to encourage self-love.


She became a warrior using nothing but self-love. Wild Faith


Sunflowers equal to positivity, Holly wanted to spread happiness during the pandemic and practice her art on murals. How initiative snowboards, and while making people happy seeds sunflower became a movement they’re over 200 sunflowers around purse and Margaret river. You can even go on a treasure hunt for mummy’s flowers, as exclaimed by  Holly’s son when they drive past them.


Her art is shifting and, on one of her posts I read:” for the love of art all titties should be casted in gold!“


Her project is organically changing and transforming into something bigger, she has started casting body parts. 


why should titties be casted in gold?

  • – because gold is high up

  • – Boobs should be high up there with it

  • – They provide for our children, breastfeeding mums

  • – If you cast your boobs now, when you grow old, you can look at them and – Think wow! That’s what I look like. You can pause time in a way…

  • – Its a piece of you and you can look at it outside of your body.


I painted nine women naked and had them run around naked in the forest- Holly


All shapes, forms and ages. I wanted to do it with regular women. 


Are you comfortable with nudity?

Within a group of people?


I feel very comfortable naked all day, but as soon as you put me naked with a group of people it’s a different story…


When I did that, I jumped over the barrier of, everyone is looking at me and I realise Diddi was fine and that was such an important step in my life. It transformed me.


Women are usually jealous and creators of drama, drama drama! But once you take off all your clothes and you perform a sensual dance together, talking openly about sensuality and sexuality, sharing your fears your doubts, and your insecurities. So they need jealousy and drama disappear. Because something much bigger is happening. It is called sisterhood!



You give out your most vulnerable self and people see you and they let their guard down, and you let your guard down, and that’s when real connections happen. I love it!


What is a beautiful body?

What image to society send out to us as being a beautiful body?


When I started posting pictures of these naked women running around in the forest painted with sunflowers, I received a lot of messages. Women share their insecurities, but also men.


Because it includes man!


When I started casting vulvas, at the same time I started casting penises.


Men messaged me and default confronted and triggered to see women naked and so liberated. One man, in particular, told me I had to take a closer look at myself and understand why I was being triggered. I realised it was because of my abandonment issues.


Scream: all bodies are beautiful


In Burlesque, all bodies are beautiful I said my cousin. This moment was a revelation for me.


Holly: and also unique!


Cream it in front of the mirror every single day!
