Matthew Marcot
Birth of the World

2022

About the Item

Matthew Marcot is an American, self-taught artist specializing in Abstract and Neo-Expressionism, and primary mediums are semiotics and collage. An underlying theme in Marcot’s work is giving visual expression to unseen ritualistic and cosmic forces - both benign and menacing - that both underlie and govern modern civilization. This was a facility of ancient art forms based on superstition and religiosity, such as in African sculpture, religious manuscripts, and cave drawings, that Marcot brings to contemporary life. Marcot’s art is fueled by his desire to explore the essence of what it means to be human in an increasingly mechanized and disassociated world. Through Marcot's embrace of primal expression, such as his own brand of hieroglyphic-like calligraphy, biomorphic semiotics, and austere geometric portraiture, he brings the human being back to their roots. Marcot works with materials such as charcoal, cut-up paper, found materials, and acrylic paint in an austere, intentional fashion to emphasize the necessity to rediscover the primal, unbridled spirit of the human being, which seems to him endangered by the impersonality of advancing technologies.

  • Original Colorful Pink Birds Flowers Expressionist Painting - This Is My Jungle
    Located in Los Angeles, CA
    Urban abstract expressionism artist Tommy Lennartsson draws on the visual culture of street and pop art when creating his original vibrant mixed-media artworks. He employs a mix of abstract and figurative elements that give nods to neo-expressionism, faux-naїf, pop, and geometric abstraction schools of art. Lennartsson builds up his canvases with charcoal, acrylic, ink, and spray paint, and occasionally sews and stitches elements together to create striking scenes that ignite the viewer’s imagination. This one-of-a-kind 47-inch high by 58.5-inch wide original artwork is stretched, wired, and ready to hang. The sides of this artwork are painted and it does not require framing. The artist signs it on the back of the painting. Free local Los Angeles area delivery. Affordable Continental U.S. and worldwide shipping available. A certificate of authenticity issued by the art gallery is included. Color interactions and the interplay of light and darkness are important to Lennartsson. By combining materials such as found fabrics Lennartsson creates a patchwork with different elements for his expressionist canvases. The unique and playful compositions range from geometrical forms to figures, objects, and pop culture icons layered over fluid gestural expressions. Because of his intuitive style, no two works are the same, each exploring something fresh and exciting. “When I look at my paintings, I’m taken back to my childhood of endless doodling on my bedroom floor,” the artist describes. His work has been featured in the Spanish arts and culture magazine Lamono and was selected as the cover art for the Spring 2019 issue of New England Review. Lennartsson has exhibited extensively in both group and solo shows worldwide, including in the US, Canada, Europe, Japan, and China.
