Oliver Lunn | Artist Interview Series
Oliver Lunn is a London-based artist from southeast England. His mixed media collage works are composed of materials “charged with history” – old found papers and magazines – manipulated and reconstructed in a process of layering, cutting, erasing and peeling back. Through this medium he “externalises the internal”, exploring new methods of refinement, down to “fragments of fragments”.
In this interview, Oliver elucidates the many influences behind his process, including an unrelenting “artistic restlessness”.

He has “ordered them in a way where they complement one another – space vs chaos, colour vs calm”.
