Behind the scenes

Adriana Oliver3 collaborationsFaceless portraits are, essentially, an oxymoron - but not for Oliver. With elegant graphic sensibility, her blank silhouettes explore societal expectations in modern-day life. Having started out as a photographer, she transitioned to the medium of painting because she felt it offered her greater autonomy over the image and, by extension, greater capacity for storytelling. Oliver works primarily with acrylic on canvas or wood panel, and also translates her pared-back compositions into sculpture and relief. Her process is incredibly methodical, distilling each image to its fundamental elements.
