Olga Casanova

Characterised by minimal shapes in the form of explorative composition collages is the work of London-based visual artist Olga Casanova. After studying Interior Design and recently graduated with a degree in Graphic Design, Casanova worked for years in the digital design field. She soon swapped this for print.

Casanova tells us about the years before and during university, she was very much a ‘digital’ person, “I spent many hours creating artworks looking at the computer” says Casanova. Then one day, during her 5 months visit to Barcelona last year, her mind and body asked her to take a break from the cold, harsh glare of the computer screen. Casanova eagerly began to get in touch with nature and this influenced her way of working. Nature and her more specifically her environment and experiences inspired her to explore organic shapes and understand how beautiful simple compositions and patterns can be.

Thanks to this change of mindset, Casanova explored other ways of creating without using a computer. She discovered how much she loved working with her creating collages and transforming them into prints through the process of printmaking. She now openly admits how much she enjoys playing and experimenting with simple shapes, using her hands to move each element around on the page until she gets the right balance within the composition.
