Matt Higgins
Horizon In Red and Blue, Contemporary Landscape Painting

2023

About the Item

This painting shows the horizon in its silent and mysterious grandeur, separated by a thin strip of pink paint and a division of two colors. The painting was created with washes of high-grade French vinyl paint and creates a slightly glossy and rich finish. The work references color field painters such as Mark Rothko and Barnett Newman but in a way that includes a subject matter whereas these painters were primarily non-objective. 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.

  • Interference, Contemporary Abstract Oil Painting
    Located in Philadelphia, PA
    In this piece, the intense use of negative space highlights each individual marks character, weight and texture. The painting explores various types of mark making and paint application inspired by elements of the landscape painted in various thicknesses, intensities and with a variety of different tools. Each mark is calculated and responsive to the one that came before it, creating a cause and effect relationship across the surface of the canvas. Restraint is a key element of this new body of work from artist Matt Higgins and the option to go further is always there. However, the excitement and spontaneity of the piece would therefore be sacrificed. Done in one session of intense meditative focus, A Place We Can See depends upon the exact moment of creation...
