Sky High - Matt Murphy

Matt Murphy is a multi-disciplinary artist who embraces diverse and dynamic mediums including street performance, graphic design, sculpture and drawing. However, his core focus over the last six years has been painting—specifically landscapes. Inspired by the universality of ambient light, each painting is equal parts observed and manufactured, re-imagining optical effects from nature through his masterful hand-layering of paint. To Murphy, “They’re an expression of things I’ve seen, a further distillation of a moment or a place or a feeling.”

Sky High is his third solo show, composed of 14 paintings created

between 2022-2024. Improvisation and iteration are part of Murphy’s process, resulting in variations on themes and a visceral connectedness between works. A graduate of the Rhode Island School of Design, Matt lives and works in Los Angeles.

All of the works in the show are for sale. To learn more about the artists, pricing and availability, click here.
