If you are not familiar with the prolific work of Matt W. Moore (MWM Graphics), maybe it is about time that you get acquainted. Truth be told, you have probably unknowingly seen his work before. You were probably momentarily arrested by the intensity of what can only be the called - the sheerest form of “Vectorfunk”.
To write about all the work that has been done to this point would require at the very least a full 24 hour, non-stop sit down conversation. But by all means, if you feel so compelled, you should visit his site and get a glimpse of his work that has garnered a continual stream of accolades, interviews, and nods of approval from the world of art & design. And it is true that his work has pretty much been seen on every corner of the globe. From his annual limited edition art books, to all the signature Vectorfunk merchandise available to his dedicated & new followers, Matt has made himself into a veritable solo, one-stop shop of marketable creative genius.
His new series, “Parallel Universe” took him to Sao Paulo, Brazil. He arrived with no art or supplies as he embarked on his first South American Solo Exhibition. Although Matt does render many of his designs digitally, he chose this time to go back to his roots and do his signature designs by hand. Using spray paint, he reflected what he saw in the bright colors and geometric patterns of Sao Paulo. Nevertheless - everything is so clean and precise that it still appears digital - a great feat by any stretch of the imagination. With his skilled use of geometric shapes that create optical illusions, the show promises to keep onlookers mesmerized.
The Exhibition is being held from June 23rd - July 25th at the Pop Gallery (Rojo) in Sao Paulo.
