Created exclusively for the Live, Laugh, Love show at We are Inky Fingers Gallery in Hackney Wick London. An invitation for contemporary printers, designers and artists to reflect, reappropriate and repurpose the Live, Laugh, Love cliché into something beautiful, ironic, new and/or interesting. It's more than likely impossible to escape the trashiness of what this phrase has become but by the same token its hard to escape the beautiful heartfelt sentiment in its intention. Theres an uncomfortable balance between the two sides of it and we think theres some good art to be made in that place.

Oli Fowler is an artist who specialises in screen-printing and illustration. Oli’s artistic practice spans across various forms of graphic art and design, including printmaking, illustration, photography, and photomontage, and he frequently combines these different mediums in his creative process. He values experimentation from the earliest stages of work allowing for chance and deliberate mistakes to give direction for the finished piece. His dynamic and sometimes abstract compositions are characterised by their use of collage scrap book style cut outs, photographed textures, solid spot colours and pure CMYK 4 colour process printing methods.
