ARTIST STATEMENT

Matthias has been working within the arts all his life in various aspects. His goal is to integrate painting, music, film, photography, acting, narrative, and poetry cohesively, while drawing from life, dreams, symbols, myth, philosophy and psychology.

“In a general reflection on my art and life, I feel that the unconscious and conscious landscape hemispheres collide creating positive and negative tension within our lives. The unconscious has an existence of time immemorial within your myth, while our conscious life ego awakes daily to a fresh new day. So I question; How do we exist through these our entire lives, shaping us toward the past, present and future as one totality? In which way does the essence of it all give meaning to who we are and contribute to our interactions with each other, our earth and universe?

 

It has been a lifelong search and journey revealing my art through these philosophical and psychological constructs. Art that coexists and works in conjunction with these constructs and with each other:

painting, music, poetry, photography, film and narrative. The landscape hemispheres and archetypes create new paths to follow and show themselves as personal empirical motifs within the art abstractly. They prove to be part of the memory, dream, reflection symbiosis. It is all much a mystery and interesting pursuit.”

Deborah Peeples at Gallery 444 PTown

Week long show 9/25-10/2. Openings on Friday 9/27. 

My work is concerned with questions about our intrinsic desire to be seen and valued, and the assumptions we maintain about ourselves and others.  A persistent question in life has been the ways in which we protect ourselves and present to others. As an adoptee and parent of a transgender child, the superficial structures we cultivate and the exposure of our core vulnerability are essential to both my artwork and my work as an activist. 

In my abstract paintings, I build, layer, and scrape back the translucent beeswax of encaustic. This becomes method and metaphor to uncover and connect with my inner self. Choosing how much to expose or obscure reflects a sense of inspection and introspection. Through its layered and sensual slowness, my work encourages exploration and a sense of journey.
