Olly & Suzi have been making art together since meeting at Central St. Martins School of Art in 1987. Whilst exploring America they encountered Native American art and mythology. Inspired by the underlying respect for nature and animals, they formalised their mission; to make art in direct response to their experiences in Nature.

In the nineties, they exhibited throughout Germany, including a three month show entitled Art Recycling, at Documenta 9, over-painting original drawings and prints by existing artists.

In 1993, Olly & Suzi left the formal confines of their studio to work on site in the wild, leading over 50 expeditions in search of predators, prey and their fragile habitats. Their site-specific performance-based work incorporates diverse environments; The Arctic, African bush, Australian outback, Galapagos Islands, and the Venezuelan Amazon. Their interactive work is documented by award-winning photographers Greg Williams and George Duffield. Photographic editions of their work are exhibited regularly at the Basel Art Fair and Paris Photo, and they show with Eleven Fine Art in London.

In 2001-02, Olly & Suzi staged a major yearlong retrospective of their work in the wild and subsequent art/science collaborations entitled Olly & Suzi Untamed at The Natural History Museum, London. In 2003 Harry N. Abrams published a major book of their work; Arctic, Desert, Ocean, Jungle.

In 2005, Olly & Suzi began an ongoing project focusing on specific species and environments increasingly under threat. In 2008-09, they will undertake a series of expeditions to document the fragile wildlife and ecosystems of the polar north. A film about their 21 year collaboration was commissioned by the BBC in March (to be shown in 2009). Directed by award-winning Rupert Murray, it includes footage shot by Doug Allan (Blue Planet), under the ice in Antarctica with predatory leopard seals.
