Matt

Emmanuel Matt’s paintings are reminiscent of the romantics, impressionists and the fauves. Using abstraction and a metaphysical dimension to memorialize the layers, visible and invisible in our landscapes and our lives. The absence of us, humans, is an invitation to introspection and to contemplation. The narrative is in the viewer’s gaze.
