Roll the Bones is an exhibit of new works by Tom Holt, a lifelong skateboarder and artist. As an artist Holt unites his passions by drawing, painting, and applying serigraphy directly onto skateboard decks. Skateboarding is a platform for expression where imagery and symbols customize each board. Holt’s exhibition is a display of his personal works along with a video element highlighting the audio and visual beauty of skateboarding, that contextualizes his 2D and 3D works.
