Ollie Tikare
Politics & Philosophy at University of the Arts London
I am London-based, multi-disciplinary artist, event organiser, photographer and curator with experience across music, art direction, journalism and visual culture. My photo practice focuses on creating an empathetic, inclusive, and modern vision of identity, creativity, and community strength that challenges stereotypes and celebrates the resilience and diversity of the African diaspora. I am also skilled in programming and managing multidisciplinary projects that bridge art, community and nightlife. I combine hands-on production experience with a strong editorial and cultural sensibility – from managing budgets and curating line-ups to directing shoots and nurturing community.
