He holds a B.A. in Visual Arts from University of California San Diego and is currently an M.F.A. candidate in Photography at the Hartford Art School. Holcombe’s work explores the effects of rapid development and economic growth in the communities near his home. In Adobe Estates, Holcombe takes the subject matter of construction and land development and uses it to create something other than houses, roads, and buildings. Using a 1949 handbook for land developers as a guidepost, he constructs beautifully surreal photographs comprised of what appears to be sculptural monumental earthworks created in the landscape.Website.
