Stone Wrap

Matthew Richardson works with paint, paper and clay using processes of collage and assemblage. His jewel-like works are meditative and mysterious and emerge slowly through a process of finding visual and metaphorical balance between fragments. The finished works hover between the abstract and imagined, and the magical and every day. 

Matthew is based in Norfolk, UK and studied at Cardiff School of Art and Central St Martins. His work has been used by the Poetry Society, The British Library and the V&A and he has shown in both gallery and museum spaces including the New Craftsman, Transition, Outpost and The Beaney. 

"I enjoy exploring museums and rummaging in charity shops because I am interested in how objects and materials are affected by wear and tear and the passage of time. I see my process as a sort of ‘visual poetry’ where a piece comes alive through combining and arranging elements in alternative configurations until everything ‘fits’."
