Biography

Originally from Cambridge, Matt graduated from Brighton College of Art & Design in 1992 with a BA(Hons) in Illustration.

In his final year he specialised in three-dimensional illustration and animation, leading to a career in special effects, commercial model-making and even bespoke carpentry.

Matt has been exhibiting work for over 20 years and, throughout his career, has always championed the use of reclaimed and found materials - trawling though shed clearances, car boot sales, beaches and antique shops to find the perfect component for each sculpture.

With his robots, he happily re uses old tins, door locks or vintage car parts, whatever it takes to give each robot it’s unique and distinct personality.
