Oli Fowler is a London based contemporary artist who has built a reputation for bold, layered screen prints that merge graphic design energy with fine art experimentation. Raised in the quiet village of Kimpton, Hertfordshire, he moved to the city in 1999 to study fashion at Central Saint Martins, but quickly gravitated toward printmaking, drawn to the immediacy of ink pulled through mesh and the happy accidents that occur when colours overlap.

Working from a Dalston studio, Fowler begins each piece with photographs of mundane objects, tin foil sculptures and rough paper collages, assembling these fragments into what he calls a “collage scrapbook style”. The resulting compositions are scanned, simplified and translated into hand cut stencils, allowing him to build complex abstract fields from solid spot colours, gritty textures and crisp black outlines. Recent editions such as BrexitWrecksIt2 layer political satire beneath neon pink ink, proving that tight graphic precision can still carry a mischievous punch.

Edition sizes remain small, often fewer than fifty, and each sheet is pulled on recycled paper that bears the subtle tooth of traditional printmaking stock. The tactile surface invites close inspection, revealing tiny registration shifts and ink splatters that Fowler refuses to tidy, arguing that these marks record the moment of creation.

When he is not printing, Fowler teaches screen printing workshops and collaborates with local musicians, translating gig posters into limited art objects that fans can take home. Through every layer of colour he celebrates the city that shaped him, offering viewers a vibrant map of London’s restless creative spirit.
