About the Item
Maelstrom, created with acrylic and vinyl paint on clear gessoed canvas, explores a dynamic balance of gesture and texture. Bold black and tan brushstrokes sweep across the surface, punctuated by small circular forms that add rhythm and contrast. The subtle interplay of textures between the acrylic paint and the raw canvas produces a nuanced depth, where areas of similar color reveal shifts in sheen and surface quality. The composition evokes both movement and stillness, inviting close observation of its layered materiality.

Matt Higgins is an artist and art professor who lives and works in Philadelphia, Pa. He received his MFA from The Pennsylvania Academy of Fine Arts and BFA from West Chester University. His work is included in numerous private and public collections throughout the United States, Europe and Australia. His various bodies of work focus on themes of abstraction, the landscape and text based paintings.

He often times returns to existing themes or motifs with a fresh outlook after departing for periods of time. Growth and learning is a significant part of the artists practice and this continued openness and exploration is what keeps his work fresh and original from one body of work to the next, never settling for predictability or the mundane.
