Oliver Hoffmeister (b. 1995 Chesterfield) is a painter-printmaker living and working in London. His work focuses on the obscure nature of the imagined image, with particular reference to the artist’s conceived imagery. Pulling influence from the plethora of visual stimuli that we interact with both passively and actively everyday, he allows his subconscious to derive images without a system of hierarchy. Creating art in an act reminiscent of ‘daydreaming’, these images tend to shift and masquerade as something other, whilst remaining self-contained.

Most recently Hoffmeister has begun re-thinking how he makes images, his relationship to them and to what extent his art can contribute a level of critical commentary on painting.
