Even in two-dimensional shapes drawn on paper, there’s a visceral sense of gravity and weight to the forms in any composition. Here in this fictional zen garden, the stacked boulders begin to imply some form of subtle, vibrating magic, pushing back against the laws of nature and physics and expectation. The invisible fields that dictate the behaviors within this space could, at any moment, cause this tower to slide apart, sending some of these buoyant round masses into the void behind, cut out of the composition for some ancient, unknown reason. If that happened, would they be lost forever? What else might be hiding back there? If you’re not wearing steel-toed shoes, all I can say is look out. Drawn with ink pens, and areas cut out of the paper composition to create literal negative space. 2005. 11 x 8

Matt Woods is a contemporary painter. His figurative and narrative works attempt to harness his own stream of consciousness towards images that reveal simple, universal stories of adversity and perseverance. In his abstract works, he sees himself as an archeologist of paint and process, repeatedly adding and subtracting layers to a variety of surfaces, hunting for visual splendor and order in the frantic discord. His work balances soft, careful mark making, often combined with violent, destructive processes, to achieve a result which mirrors his view that life is a marriage of exaltation and pain. The canvas materials Matt chooses are often reclaimed pieces of wood from structures that come with their own embedded histories, like an old, well-used easel found at a yard sale, or an abandoned skateboard ramp found in the middle of the desert. These ghosts that accompany the materials call out to have their stories influence the marks made by the artist, adding further buried layers of interest and complexity to the work.
