Matt Sheridan Smith

Pattern portrait (cyclist)

A fragmented portrait of a cyclist emerges through layers of acrylic gel transfers and collaged paper, assembled on a linen ground in Matt Sheridan Smith's signature process-driven approach. The image breaks apart and reconstitutes itself through texture and material, blurring the boundary between photography and painting. Repetition and surface disruption transform the familiar subject into something between documentation and abstraction.
