Olivia Franklin, a recent Fine Art graduate, has been chosen to exhibit her paintings and animations, as part of the Uncanny Likeness show at the OVADA Gallery in Oxford.
Olivia experiments with literal translations of movement, culminating in a body of figurative painted animations. These works demonstrate the relevance of painting in an increasingly conceptual art world and its versatility as a medium. The animation highlights notions of illusion and space, challenging the perception of the portrait.

The show runs from: 11 JULY - 22 AUGUST 2009
Open: Tuesday to Friday 10am – 5pm; Saturday 11am – 4pm
Free Admission
The OVADA gallery is located in Gloucester Green Bus Station.
