Hello everyone - today we are happy to present our fourth edition. Matthew Langley’s On The Way Home.

Matthew’s artwork is developed by using multiple strategies. One of building and extending - the other of reducing and minimizing. These disparate approaches are not a way to impose meanings on the work, but can be viewed as a metaphoric crossroads. This crossroads is about extending the relationship of these different approaches, while at the same time allowing the viewer the liberty of time for further reading of the work. Matthew’s images use this strategic foundation to build clear, concise and rational images, while at the same time allowing for a sense of community and/or contemplation to develop in and around the artworks.

Matthew Langley was born in 1963 in Alexandria, Virginia and studied at Virginia Commonwealth University and received a BFA from The Corcoran School of Art in 1986.
