“A wall-hanging sculpture that blends anatomy with architecture.”
— Matthew Reynolds
About the artist
Matthew Reynolds
American
Matt Reynolds is an animated filmmaker, artist, and educator raised in the California Bay Area. He received an MFA in Experimental Animation from CalArts in 2010. He was an invited artist in residence at GlogauAIR Berlin in 2013, and the Santa Monica Camera Obscura Art Lab in 2020. Consistent across his work in animation, sculpture, and graphic arts is a fascination with the grotesque and fantastical. His sculptures, made primarily from stucco and styrofoam, articulate a personal visual lexicon that melds cartoon exaggerations with anatomical and architectural forms to create playful - yet menacing - hybrid morphologies. Reynolds currently teaches animation and media arts with the Los Angeles Community College District and the non-profit organization LA Promise Fund.
