Oliver Hoffmeister (b. 1995) is a painter-printmaker living and working between Newcastle and London. His work focuses on the obscure nature of the imagined image, with particular reference to the artist’s conceived imagery. Pulling influence from the plethora of visual stimuli that we interact with both passively and actively everyday, he allows his subconscious to derive images without a system of hierarchy. Hoffmeister has undertaken residencies at Museo del Prado, Madrid, ES; Moritz/Heyman Residency, Turin, IT; and the Romney Marsh Foundation, UK. He has exhibited widely nationally and internationally, and his works are held in Moritz/Heyman Collection, The Royal Collection, Museo Del Prado Collection and the Royal Academy Collection as well as numerous private collections.
