Matt Herring | Art Collection
Matt Herring’s sensual female portraiture explores the relationship between the human form and the natural world in a breath-taking blend of antiquity and modernity. Focusing on the inherent beauty of the feminine he ornaments his portraiture with contemporary elements such as tattoos, alongside Victorian botanical and naturalist illustrations and found objects from the natural world. By creating this juxtaposition between past and present and employing avant-garde technique with vintage materials, Matt creates something which is slightly surreal and stylistically unique. His stated intention is to convey the strength and power of his subjects as well as giving his personal interpretation of beauty, balance and harmony – in his stunning artwork these women have the status of modern-day goddesses.
Investment
Matt has collaborated with large fashion publications such as Vogue & Vanity Fair - he is well acclaimed in the arts industries and is further growing a vast group of collectors.
Achievements
His work is widely collected and has been displayed in venues as diverse as independent galleries, London Underground stations, Bollywood film theatres and the Royal Albert Hall. Commissions have come from the BBC, The National Theatre, and Guy Ritchie’s production team, and the Strictly Come Dancing judge Bruno Tonioli owns a huge portrait of himself that Matt created for the British Academy exhibition at the Guardian Newspaper. Of 2,500 Time Out covers published since 1968, one of Matt’s, celebrating the Queen’s Diamond Jubilee, was included in the top 50 and hung in the 50 Years 50 Covers exhibition in the London Brand Museum alongside works from Banksy and Tracey Emin, as well as being featured in the accompanying book.
