Marcus Matt’s painting is characterized by an intimate connection and familiarity with the material and the process of working. Everyday observations, as well as inner images and impressions from literature or art history, all become part of a process in which the boundary between life and artistic practice is blurred. Some paintings are executed directly, in a single sweep, while others are built up slowly through many thin layers of paint and light.
Marcus Matt (b. 1992 in Dalköpinge, Sweden) lives and works in Malmö. He received his MFA from Malmö Art Academy in 2017 and studied at Cooper Union, New York, in 2014. His work has previously been shown at Ravinen Båstad, Trelleborgs Museum, Kristiansand Kunsthal, Malmö Konsthall among others. In 2025, Marcus Matt was awarded Edstrandska Foundation Scholarship.
New works by Matt will be presented during Gallery Weekend in Stockholm 5-8 November.
