“I like the idea of an ode to freedom, to be and to perceive what one wishes.”
Oli-B (BE, 1984), is a painter, illustrator and street artist from Brussels. Since his teenage years, his letters have evolved into characters, and his characters into abstract forms. He works in acrylic, spray paint and screen printing on canvas, paper, wood and walls. His world of rounded shapes and vivid colours is dreamlike, joyful and optimistic. Every canvas, poster and mural is a hand-painted original, and he treats the city’s public spaces as his playground.
