Chloe Holliday is an independent animator and projection artist based in Victoria. Her practice combines macro photography, animation, and large-scale projection to examine relationships between wildlife, landscape, and place.

Working across film and site-responsive installation, she documents natural environments in close detail and reinterprets them through animation, often projecting works back into their original contexts. Her work explores translation between observation, moving image, and spatial experience, with an ongoing interest in biophilia and the perceptual relationships between humans and natural systems.

Her work has been presented at festivals and exhibitions including St Kilda Film Festival, Queenscliff Music Festival, and Abbotsford Convent.
