My work begins in the space between a lived and recalled experience and is an enabler of a retelling of my encounters with landscape and the natural world. It’s never my aim to relay a specific location in my work with landscape, but rather to embrace this ‘movement in memory’. more

Matthew has exhibited across the UK and his work can be found in private collections in the UK and U.S.

My work begins in the space between a lived and recalled experience and is an enabler of a retelling of my encounters with landscape and the natural world. It’s never my aim to relay a specific location in my work with landscape, but rather to embrace this ‘movement in memory’. The paintings are container for a tension, or interplay, between an inner and outer reality. Through the work I’m able to freely explore my relationship with the landscape as truly exists for me at any one time.

My process is catalyst for a seeking of emotional surrender, which itself manifests in gestural and expressive mark-making. The paintings are abstract by way of their disconnect from any literal interpretation of the experience, with colour and form indicative of my emotions in relation to this recalling of time and place.
