Oliver Gili
SCANNED ACRYLICS AND OILS
NOTES
Oliver Gili's art exists only in digital form, but he comes
to it by a unique pathway, creating the art first by traditional
means in acrylics and oils, then scanning the art into
the computer where he then digitally adjusts it in Adobe Photoshop.
It is then printed out on photographic film for exhibit. Gili
tells us that he draws upon the techniques of post-impressionism,
the artificial realities of computer game graphics and the intensity
of stained glass. Gili, 27, lives in Brighton, England. "I am
increasingly interested with the possibilities of taking art
outside of the normal gallery environments," he writes. While
showing at the Skylark Gallery, London, and
elsewhere, he has exhibited widely, sometimes by projection
of transparencies of his art, in pubs, bars and clubs in
the Brighton area.
