About
Matt Gold is based in Brooklyn, NY, where he divides his time between music and photography. As evidence of the democratizing nature of his approach to photography, Gold has no formal training in the visual arts. His first image, a picture of his cat on a Sony Ericsson Z310A flip phone, was taken in 2008, and he has continued to explore the aesthetic possibilities of that instrument. Gold’s work has been featured in numerous publications and journals.
Curator Review
#634
This amorphous, mixed media work by artist Matt Gold, breathes out no defined point of departure. Gold’s abstract yet articulate work, eliminates the obvious and delves into the exhalation that is expression. By eliminating the extraneous and embracing passage and expansion, a better comprehension of the metaphysical world can be felt. In soft layers and mottled ‘moments’ a wondrous story of evolution unfolds here. -E.E. Jacks New York United States of America
