Oliver Smith is based in Bath, South West


My art practice is primarily centred on voluntary and involuntary nostalgic incidents, which manifest in us the most dangerous character of indecision to yield and enjoy, or resist in fear. It can also be understood as a personal search for knowledge, and an exercise that realises memory as the mediator of imagination.
