Oh de Laval (born Olga Pothipirom, 1990, Warsaw) is half Polish, half Thai. She creates highly sexualised, ultra-violent scenes that aim to capture our quotidian relationships with luck, love and lust. Her idiosyncratic aesthetic takes from children’s fiction to create an interesting tension between subject and style. This is a visual balancing act that explains itself perfectly upon meeting the artist: Oh de Laval is at once innocent and disarming, playful and captivating, she is her work incarnate.

Set in a lavish rococo-style interior with saturated yellows, this painting captures the tension between domestic eroticism and performative decadence, a recurring theme in Oh de Laval's darkly playful critique of gender and intimacy.

 

Depicting a haunting, grotesque wedding portrait of Diana and Charles, exemplifies Oh de Laval’s subversive satire of power and royal mythology, rendered in her signature faux-naïf, psychologically charged style.
