After training as an animator at university, he turned to fine art to understand the psychological impact and broader cultural influence of images. His latest work explores language and if it is still possible to assign sacred meaning to symbols in an age when 'God is dead' and all things subject to interpretation. Drawing from writing systems across the world and using medieval gilding techniques, Matt has developed a style of modern illumination to try and elevate personal messages above the noise of the present day. See and learn more on Matt's website - www.mattvadis.com - where you can also purchase original artwork and new limited edition gilded prints. ๐Ÿ›๐ŸŽจ #beckenhamplacemansion
