A young artist from Buckinghamshire, Ollie Ma’ is currently studying Photography at Nottingham Trent University. His practice deals "with feelings of dislocation and disconnection and has been informed by the theatrical conventions of epic theatre, as well as the form of storytelling pioneered by John Wyndham called logical fantasy". Ma's latest project is titled Open World and juxtaposes/integrates photographs taken in Grand Theft Auto V with views and portraits  shot IRL, inviting the viewer to play a comparative game.
