Oliver BuBu Schibli – Biography

He is a self-taught artist that began in his early years at school. During this time and until 2012 he never showed his work to the publicly. After his early experiments in painting and art he decides to do a 4 years apprenticeship as a sign maker and went to the visual school of art in Bern, Switzerland. There he learned all the different techniques from writing with feathers, working with gold leaf, the color gauge, screen printing and all the other important aspects of creating. It was essential to learn the basics of the different materials, techniques and possibilities. After this important stage a dark period came in his life. After his mother doing suicide he went threw a 10 year periode of creative blockades and trying to forget the tragedy. In this period, he didn’t create a lot of pieces but at the age of thirty he overcame this dark period and started thinking and creating serious art again. Always with a normal job in the office during the day, he worked in the evenings and during every free minute and got more and more sure which direction he wanted to go. He was then sure that he wanted to become one of the most successful and known artists in the world.

With this goal in mind, he made the life changing decision in March 2014 to become a full time artist. This has given him the opportunity to find his unique style. In the year 2014 he left Switzerland to work in Asia away from every deflection in Zuerich and had his own Art Gallery in Thailand during one year. During this time he worked almost fifteen hours every day on his technique and ideas and experimented a lot. He also started to produce different accessories with his art on it and created his own Art brand. This was the birth of the BUBU Collection.

After his time in asia and lots of hours of experimenting and having learnt a lot about the production process he decided to go back to Switzerland and take his art career to another level.
