“I like the idea of entangling nature with a sense of escapism, meditation, surrealism and the sublime.”
About the Artist
Mathew Tucker
Connecticut based painter Mathew Tucker’s painting and drawing practise focuses on large, surreal landscapes, The practise in Mat’s words: "In recent years my work has focused on re-imaging landscapes as though looking through a window, an opening or a portal….this also plays on a broader metaphor of our internal experience of looking out upon an external, separate, physical world.” Recent awards and features include: The CUE-Aon Artist Empowerment Award 2021 and features in Maake Magazine and ArtMaze.
