Ollivier grew up in France and now lives in London.
"While being bored at school, I started to get into graffiti and quickly decided that I wanted to do something related to visual art," Ollivier told INSIDER.
He chose a career in graphic design because "being able to imagine and create anything you want is pretty liberating."
"I have produced music, I am now co-making wine, it opens up new horizons and feeds my curiosity I suppose," he added.
His most recent project, "Re:Birth," takes popular apps and social media platforms and re-imagines them in the form of '80s technology.
Everything was so different before the internet (and so much harder!).
