Oliver Bazeley is an artist located in Leicestershire and London, specialising in sculpture and installations made from everyday found objects. Through this, his practice explores the interplay between individuals' agency and the prevailing regulatory structures that dictate current circumstances and social behaviours.
By using visual extracts of the quotidian, his work intersects life junctions which demand verdict and encourages views to question whether their decisions are self-led or informed by external ideologies reinforced during adolescence.
The work is produced on a project basis, shaped through object collection, drawing, and reflective writing that references both his own upbringing and the industrial, domestic, cultural and/or spatial qualities, unique to the geopolitical area of it’s making.
