OBI Corp explores relationships of all forms in a networked world. Building experiences that embrace and affirm the world around us, OBI Corp combines natural elements, conjured creations, and ephemeral experiences to offer up a reminder that we are all in this together.

OBI Corp is Owen Brierley and a menagerie of collaborators who work together depending on the context of the work, who is needed, and what capacity exists.

Owen’s recent artist statement for a podcast hosted on Minbid’s IG Live stream: Relationships are everything and everywhere. I am fascinated by relationships of all kinds regardless of what objects are involved or whether the relationships take a corporeal form or exist in the ether of our minds. I build objects that exist in the real world and the virtual. Sometimes I merge the two in the same space and time. I use tools that are made of code, light, sound, plastic, paint, tape, or any other form that allows me to connect with you.Relationships are everything and everywhere.
