The Garden

‘Uninhibited’ a colourful exhibition exploring themes of celebration, otherness and acceptance through collaborative Artists

Marie Brenneis • Oliver Adam

DollyOlli‘s sculptures welcome us into a world of their own, an exciting space where individuality is celebrated and the challenges of the world are acknowledged. The duo produce playful, comic, colourful and complex large-scale sculptures that are often finished in bright colours.

“We give public buildings and environments personalities!”

They reject and refuse the current tastes of colour and seriousness in Western art, culture, and the public environment; challenging the ridiculousness of how serious our public spaces have become. DollyOlli’s mission is to inject playfulness into urban public spaces in need of a little TLC. Their vibrant pop aesthetic, characterised by an impulse towards humour and the carnivalesque, is embodied in their public sculptures. By bringing playfulness and interaction back into urban spaces, Dollyolli’s art inspires audiences to consider the ways in which sterile urban designs increasingly conditions our visual freedoms and imaginative potential. Artists Marie Brenneis and Olivier Adam are the creative masterminds behind DollyOlli and have been collaborating for the better part of a decade. The Conceptual strengths of Visual Artist, Marie Brenneis and Organic Sculptor and Designer, Olivier Adam come together to create a world of colour and acceptance. While Marie designs the gestures and colours, Olli focuses on character animation and craftsmanship.

All works are for sale and hire with a portion of the proceeds going to The House of St Barnabas Charity.
