"Matt Sellars grew up in Spokane looking at landscapes that were falling apart. Although immaculately constructed, his sculptures pay homage to a world of lost things, barns swaying in abandoned fields, shotgun shacks and electric coils burned out and tossed aside. From the rubble in his memory, he makes perfect objects with a hitch in their construction. His wooden coils could never function, and his table-top barns, newly minted, would collapse were they full scale in the world.att Sellars combines his affection for the romance of the western landscape with his keen eye and ability to reduce forms to their essence in his sculptural work." Regina Hackett, Seattle PI Matt's work has been exhibited in the Schneider Museum, Ashland, OR, and the Sun Valley Center for the Arts, Sun Valley, ID. He has had two solo shows at Platform Diaphaneity The Empty Quarter The There (group) Available work |
