Beautiful neon lights and controversial art: you have them together in Olivia Steele. She is a conceptual artist, who is not afraid to be linked to a very difficult area, since neon is, usually, connected to advertising and advertisements.

Neon lightning is more and more spread in artistic mediums. It is a beautiful and simple way of representation.

She juxtaposes very contradictory elements, like images of atomic bombs and beautiful hand-writing, saying something very controversial. Therefore, Wish you were here becomes very ironic and very strong. A phrase which is cliche becomes visible when put in a different context.

Her latest show Save the Best for Last at CircleCulture Gallery in Berlin was very refreshing, since most of her works are simple, accessible and also beautiful. The message is clear and very strong, but there is room for beauty, too.

Her works are both dreamy, as well as strong statements that might become controversial.

“Olivia Steele uses neon lighting to charge spaces with ironic and spiritual meaning.”
