Pathway Through The Palms

Forgotten Palms

Navigating the West of the United States can reveal nothing but a barren and sombre landscape. Sporadically scattered across this desolate panorama, a mystical oasis of palm trees appear. Dead or alive, they stand defiant to the elements. A totem reminder of the country’s wild heritage among the layers of freeways and concrete urban jungle. Some have been cultivated as a place of new beginnings. Others appear as a graveyard to the hope that once was.

Using a scrupulous method of capture, matthew’s work looks to alter our view of familiar habitats as conscious retrospections in fine art photography. His creative vision captures a calm and melancholic disposition in the landscape evoking an emotional response from within. Environments are appraised as simple, clean, and graphic impressions, and convoluted vistas are reduced to modest visions of wistful clarity. Purposefully devoid of people and any notable present-day objects, the images appear to have no concept of time. The discernibly banal metamorphosises into a perception of aesthetic beauty.

Matthew’s work has garnered numerous international awards, received recognition in global press, and featured in multiple exhibitions in australia and internationally.
