Background

About Liam Olczyk

Hi! I’m Liam. I’m a graphic designer slash maker with a passion for creative collaboration and meaningful design. I work mainly on ethically and socially responsible projects that focus on justice issues important to me; anything from food-poverty to ocean conservation. Having lived by the sea my entire life, marine life is constantly driving and inspiring my creative making. I create work for local audiences. I believe that design can be big and small, and it’s really important to me that whatever project I work on, I work with the audiences to create something really special. My design practice involves inter-disciplinary making, including collage and type work, illustration and print. I host workshops and creative making sessions, as well as collaborating specifically with other makers in sectors such as illustration and photography. In addition to this, I frequently work with young people to help them develop their creative skills, and show the value of creativity both inside and outside the curriculum. I’m currently working in the branding and packaging sector, creating high quality artworks for products sold nationally and internationally.
