Holly Chang (she/her) is an interdisciplinary artist living in Toronto/Tkaronto with an MA in Communication and Culture at TMU/York University and a BA in Creative Industries from TMU. Her overall artistic work explores the themes of her second-generation identity as a mixed-race Jamaican-Chinese and white Canadian. Chang also identifies as a queer artist and in her work, she further relates the experiences of being queer to her mixed-race identity.

Her previous achievements include being one of three recipients in Canada of the William and Meredith Saunderson Prizes for Emerging Visual Artists (2025), and the winner of the Middlebrook Prize for curation awarded to one young curator in Canada (2023). Chang has also been the recipient of numerous Canada Arts Council, Ontario Arts Council, and Toronto Arts Council grants. She has participated in over 10 artist residencies across the globe including PADA in Portugal (2024), the Banff Artist in residence program (2022), and Palazzo Monti in Italy (2018). She has had two solo exhibitions including at Blouin Division Gallery (2025) and Gallery 44 (2022).
