Oliver Doe (b.1994) is an artist, writer and curator whose work considers issues around queer sexuality, gender and relationships.

His transmedia practice operates between minimalist painting, sculpture, the altered object, performance, and the written word to examine queer visibility, represent a trace of the body and generate a sense of absence. Oliver has a particular interest in the ways in which levels of abstraction are manifested between visual culture and queer lives, and the ‘in-between-ness’ of both his practice and identity. His focus predominantly lies on exploring bisexuality as an identity within queer communities.

He has exhibited widely across the UK and shown in the USA since graduating from Newcastle University in 2016, and has works held in several private collections.
