Art Wank Podcast – Oliver Abbott

Welcome back to Art Wank! In this episode, we chat with Sydney-based artist Oliver Abbott, whose latest exhibition, Mine, is currently showing at Dominik Mersch Gallery.

Oliver’s practice explores memory and its distortions, using digital world-building tools to reconstruct remembered spaces. His background in filmmaking, animation, and architecture feeds into his work, blending virtual environments with painting to create speculative spaces that sit between reality and imagination.

We discuss:
 🎨 How Oliver’s memories of lived spaces inform his work
 🖥️ The role of digital tools in his creative process
 🏛️ His transition from filmmaking to painting
 🖼️ The themes behind his Mine exhibition
👀 What’s next for his practice

Oliver’s work is a fascinating exploration of how we remember and reimagine spaces, and we loved hearing about his unique process.

Where to find Oliver’s work:
👉 Dominik Mersch Gallery
👉 Oliver’s website
