Olivia Gossett Cooper is a New York–based artist who works in painting, installation and video to explore how artworks shape meaning. Her paintings feature layers of organic continuous paths of color, inviting you to endless depth and a break from directive meaning. Lines that span edge to edge to imply continuity beyond the frame, acting as arbitrary moments along trajectories without clear origin or endpoint. Relationships and meaning remain in flux, preventing the paintings from settling in any one place and forcing the viewer to stay inside and resist resolve. Her sculpture and installations offer an alternative role for the artwork, intersecting familiar objects in unfamiliar ways to arrive at implied new perspectives for the viewer.

Cooper has presented solo exhibitions with NYC MOCA (2026) and The Empty Circle (2025). She has presented at fairs including ArtPrize (2024) and Future Fair (2026). Her work has been included in exhibitions at Arts Letters & Numbers (2025), Westbeth Gallery (2025), Second Ave Arts (2024), Arbor Gallery (2024), and more. She is a participant in the Canopy Program (2026/27) and has studied at NY Academy of Art in ongoing education.

Cooper lives and works in Tribeca, New York City.
