Matt Gabel

Achieving a synergy of mixed media, one must revere Matt Gabel’s works. Through his highly stylized collage technique, Matt introduces the viewer to a world with a sense of the fantastic and an overall
whimsical certainty. With a mix of playful fantasy and recognizable subject matter, he presents a newfound, captivating perspective. Developed through a series of their own formal questions and
decisions, each composition provides his materials the loving presentation they deserve in his collage and paintings.

Vibrant and vivacious, each of these works has a conceptual quality that boasts a distinct, clever type of truth in the implied story of each piece. Matt’s mixed-media paintings keep open a world of possibility and stories to be seen and told. With his creativity donating universality to his work that
speaks volumes, the personality of his subject showcases his talent and clever capability as an
artist. Creating a coy, playful world of colors and forms, Matt’s narratives actually become subject to the viewer’s own understanding of the art. To Matt, art is always a constant recording of a mood, feeling, or culture captured in time forever. He is always grateful to be part of this contemporary journey in the arts.
