She lectures and exhibits worldwide in these venues: Museum of Contemporary Art Chicago,[7] J. Paul Getty Museum [8] in Los Angeles, 01SJ Biennial, Siggraph 2000, Worldart in Denmark, Interaction ’01 in Japan, ISEA Nagoya. A recipient of the Michigan Society of Fellows research fellowship [9] in 1998, Holmes has earned the Illinois Arts Council individual grant, an Artists-in-Labs residency award in Switzerland, and a 2010 Rhizome Commission.[10]
