‘Hand Holders’, 2026, oil and acrylic on canvas, 175cm x 195cm 🖤
Come and see in Booth C08 @perrotin
The painting is about loving in fear. Liking the same sex and holding hands in a pocket.
I wanted to call it ‘Hate Male’. A play on words. But feared the title was too moralising. It’s a work about finding confidence and protection in suppression, secrecy and discomfort.
The letter box is battered, a symbol of quiet violence and hatred for a home. I got wet eyes when I was thinking about the post box; I wanted it to look brand new but broken and bent.
I liked the momentum of the men walking forward, and I felt ‘Hand Holders’ left the viewer with the tender optimism of change.

Oli Epp (@oli.epp) is one of the most exciting young artists working in London right now. His solo exhibition ‘Dirty Laundry’ is open at @perrotin in Shanghai. Showcasing Oli’s darkly humorous ‘unrealist’ pop-paintings. Naturally, we sent @dora_db Dora_db over to his studio to have a nose at what was going down.
‘Dirty Laundry’ is on view at @perrotin, Shanghai, until 15th August 2026.

Thank you @dazed for featuring ‘Dirty Laundry’ in your latest issue.
“Oli Epp’s paintings have always delighted in contradiction: the glossy surface and the anxious undercurrent, childlike honesty and adult wounds. Deliciously unstable.”
Catch it @perrotin Shanghai until 15 August

🧹’Elephant in the Room’, 2026, oil and acrylic on canvas, 180cm x 200cm
This painting is called Elephant in the Room. This has the most absurd title in the show. But speaks about the things that are unspoken.
Here, I’ve captured her in a state of ecstacy. Everything is clean: her job is done. The curtains are about to close.
I see this show, Dirty Laundry, as the soap opera of my life. In it, I wanted to make a figure of someone trying to make things good again.
She’s actually sweeping the floor with a broom made of the hair of a person whose disrespected her.
So it becomes a domestic object, but also a revenge fantasy: which is also the title of the Britney Spears perfume I’m imagining she’s spraying.

🦴 ’Dog House’, 2026, oil and acrylic on canvas, 130cm x 150cm
This painting is called ‘Dog House’. I wanted to make a painting about the strange domestic theatre of being in trouble in a relationship.
It’s about being “in the dog house”: you’re punished, but you’re still loved. The dog bed here is silk-lined and has satin sheets.
You’re still fed, just served with a slightly different attitude.
The knife in the steak resembles a sundial - a clock that tells the time. The dog house itself is inspired by Nordic churches. I liked the idea of it being a chapel for shame and love, where multiple feelings can exist.
In many ways, this painting is a portrait of domestic grudges and acts of forgiveness that relationships quietly accumulate behind closed doors.

🪽’Madonna’, 2026, oil and acrylic on canvas, 180cm x 200cm
‘Madonna’ was made in response to the fear I had of losing my mother to cancer this year. The painting is about my wish to keep her here.
Before making this painting, I saw a wedding dress handmade by the bride using the material from the parachute that saved her husbands life during WW2. I wondered what the dress would’ve been that would save my mother’s life.
It oscillates between a morning glory flower and a blue medical hospital gown. My mum is a dentist. I was thinking about her as a mother, a Tooth Fairy, and a memory all at once. This painting was my good wish to her.

🪨 ‘Sticks n’ Stones’, 2026, oil and acrylic on canvas, 180cm x 200cm
This painting is about feeling like a loser.
I’m attracted to ostriches because they’re very good at running away, but completely useless at hiding. There’s something also funny and tragic about being a bird that can’t fly.
I consider myself as a person who can’t nest.
There’s an old wives’ tale that ostriches bury their heads as an act of suicide. I was startled by the pain of that thought. The paper planes above its head are mixed messages: rejection letters, bad grades, and all the things I never had the confidence to say.

🍷’Holy Water’, 2026, oil and acrylic on canvas, 180cm x 200cm
I have an Elvis juke box in my studio. I’m attracted to him as a symbol of tragedy and as someone that has fallen from grace. He is on his knees, which feels both religious and erotic: begging for forgiveness and weighed down by his golden Elvis pelvis. The hands behind is back resemble a bird shadow puppet, a symbol of hope.
This is a work about sobriety, submission, surrender, and finding freedom through discipline.

🚀 Thank you Shanghai! It’s been a blast.
My show ‘Dirty Laundry’ is on until 15th August at @perrotin.
“Epp keeps the appetite of recent shows, but changes the temperature. The feast was the night before. Now comes the washing up. The aftertaste. The works are funny, sometimes viciously so.
The title, Dirty Laundry, carries its own comic threat. Laundry is domestic, repetitive, and ordinary. It is what piles up when life happens. But to ‘air one’s dirty laundry’ is taboo. It implies scandal, secrecy, and exposure: an inventory of embarrassments on the line.” - @mollieebarnes

🔥’ Lucky Strike’, 2026, oil and acrylic on canvas, 180cm x 200cm
‘Lucky Strike’ depicts a fire horse with a matchstick mane like a nervous system set ablaze. It is a creature of temper and timing, animated by the Lunar New Year. A teenage foal growing into itself, he is both lucky and injured. Red, in many countries, carries associations of good fortune and celebration, alongside the horseshoe necklace and four-leaf clover at his hooves. However, if this is a war horse, it was bred for the wrong battle: camp, lazy, too beautiful for violence and too wounded for an easy surrender. Its coy expression was inspired by Princess Diana’s fluttering eyes in interviews.
