Doing The Work

MATTHEW RUSSO matthewjrusso.com @matthew_j_russo Matthew Russo observes, abstracts, and reshapes the objects and things he encounters. He plays with forms, questioning their material qualities and utility. Blurring the lines of how an object may be interpreted and known, he constructs objects in relation to one another to produce even further questions. Born in Worcester, MA, Russo received a B.F.A. in Painting from Lyme Academy College of Fine Arts and an M.F.A. from American University. Russo has exhibited throughout the DMV but most recently at Mono Practice in Baltimore, MD, and at Art Enables in Washington, DC. He currently works in Washington, DC as an Art Handler and is part of the 2021-2023 cohort of the Hamiltonian Fellowship.
