Olivia is a multidisciplinary artist and scenic painter from Merseyside and now living and working in Bristol.
She is currently experimenting with printing on and with ‘waste’ materials such as old cartons and wood offcuts using intaglio and cyanotype. Her work is inspired by solo explorations and imagery in translated novels. She explores narrative using her own photographs and images of empty spaces. Olivia completed a Masters in Multidisciplinary Printmaking at UWE, Bristol and now works in her studio space InBristol Studios in Barton Hill.
In addition to this, Olivia works as a scenic painter for theatre, interiors, film, TV, shoots and events having graduated with a degree in Theatre Design from RWCMD.
