“I LOVE YOU TOO”
SOLO EXHIBITION
Versus Gallery, London 1st - 16th Feburary 2024
In his first solo art exhibition “I LOVE YOU TOO”, the title is in response to a person telling someone “I love you”.
Oliver wants to open up the dialogue that can be shared between two people with love notes and song lyrics.
Each piece has been selected from a comprehensive list that Oliver has been compiling over the past couple of years.
The walls around you come to life as you witness the intricate beauty of screenprints and hand-painted lettering.
Prepare to be immersed in Oliver James Davies' art, where love, music and creativity intertwine.
Oliver's previous works have been murals seen at the Hackney Bumps skate park, including his first for Vans. Beyond the skate park, his works have also found homes in various coffee shops, including the renowned Millfields Coffee and Paper Cup, in Shoreditch.
Oliver has recently sold art to collectors in Austin, Texas and Mexico.
Do Good x Spitalfields Crypt Trust, January 2023
Paper & Cup is a social enterprise cafe/charity shop located on Calvert Avenue, Shoreditch and part of The Spitalfields Crypt Trust (SCT). SCT works with people facing addiction & homelessness to raise money to fund their hub on Shoreditch High Street - a 16 bed hostel and therapeutic centre.
Paper & Cup offers training and volunteering opportunities to people, based at the hub, who are recovering from addiction. The manager saw one of my posters in the local area with the message “DO GOOD”, which struck a chord and asked if I would paint two murals in store.
