Oliver is a neurodivergent artist who works across a range of media, including drawing, painting, textiles, mixed media and video.

This piece "is based on patterns and iteration on an idea: the alphabet, the three repeating faces (self portraits of the artist) and an ascending numerical count (1-70). Patterns, routine and repetition are an important device for Oliver Fontany, being a tool that lets him engage deeper in his favourite media, self regulate, communicate and break up his day."
