MATT MACKEN

Matt Macken is a contemporary artist born in Leicester, UK, in 1986. His work explores the complex relationship between human nature and the natural world, using abstract-figurative forms to convey the emotional and psychological struggles of modern life. Macken's paintings are marked by their vibrant use of color, dynamic composition, and deep engagement with the tension between humanity's intellectual consciousness and primal instincts.

Having exhibited his work internationally in galleries across the UK, Europe, the USA, and Asia, Macken’s art is known for its emotionally charged and introspective qualities. His paintings challenge viewers to reflect on their own experiences, emotions, and fears, creating a deeply personal connection between the viewer and the artwork. Matt’s approach encourages multiple interpretations, leaving space for individual meaning within the boldness of his strokes and compositions.
Matt Macken's work is about bypassing intellectual analysis and going straight for the gut. I want viewers to feel something raw—something that connects them with a deeper sense of who we are as humans.
