Matt Higgins
Scorched, Contemporary Landscape Painting

2022

About the Item

Scorched shows and intensely heated landscape with the sun hovering overhead. Plant life struggles to stay alive in this hot climate and the plants here are shown climbing towards the sun. Exploring themes of environmental change and global warming, the title Scorched is a direct reference to a climate that has become overheated and arid. Void of human presence and interaction, the landscape here is stripped down to its bare elements. Attached fabrics and studio "debris" create rich visual textures and touch on themes of recycling and zero waste. Matt Higgins b. 1987 is an artist and art professor who lives and works in Philadelphia, Pa. He maintains a regular studio practice in the Fishtown neighborhood focusing primarily on abstract styles of painting but sometimes dabbling in text based paintings, landscapes or other genres of painting. His work is included in numerous private collections and has been included in wide range of interior design projects including residential properties, corporations and hotels.
