Semiose Galerie in Paris is currently showing ‘Epiphanies‘, a solo exhibition by British artist Oli Epp. Born in 1994, Oli Epp is a recent graduate of the City & Guilds of London Art School and has taken the art world by storm. Despite his young age, Oli Epp has already taken part in a series of exhibitions from Australia, Denmark, the US and Spain and has a huge following on social media.
His body of work are inspired by his everyday experiences and observations. Often autobiographical, they share situations that involve the artist and his encounters with a touch of humour.
Using flatness and realism, simplified characters are portrayed with oversized heads, with an absence of facial features, self-absorbed in their post digital age with a focus on their branded items and communication pieces. Oli Epp’s paintings are a visual play between real and digital lives and a satirical representation of human interactions in a world of consumerism and communication.
