Erin Oliver re-imagines our complex world through multi-perspectival installation experiences, as well as paintings and drawings. She deconstructs and reimagines natural imagery to create immersive sculptural installations via cutting, layering, and suspending ephemeral materials in space, painted with light, shadow, and color. Oliver’s work brings landscape to the forefront as a vital component of our lives and evokes a sense of calm as a counter to the overstimulation and negativity of modern life. |
