About the Item
Engaging in a diary-like approach, merging memory, stream of consciousness writing, and abstract mark-making this piece began as a sizable text-based painting, however, it gradually evolved into a more emotive, gestural piece employing a variety of materials including acrylic paint, spray paint, oil pastel, chalk, and affixed photographs. Crafted in 2019, the painting embodies numerous facets of Higgins's academic pursuits, stemming from his graduation from grad school in 2017.

Matt Higgins is an artist and art professor who lives and works in Philadelphia, Pa. He received his MFA from The Pennsylvania Academy of Fine Arts and BFA from West Chester University. His work is included in numerous private and public collections throughout the United States, Europe and Australia. His various bodies of work focus on themes of abstraction, the landscape and text based paintings. His work can be viewed as a constant progression, as well as a cycle from one body of work to the next. He often times returns to existing themes or motifs with a fresh outlook after departing for periods of time. Growth and learning is a significant part of the artists practice and this continued openness and exploration is what keeps his work fresh and original from one body of work to the next, never settling for predictability or the mundane.
