Artist Statement
 

  "The only true wisdom is in knowing you know nothing." - Socrates

  My art work is an interesting mix of styles with a focus on color, texture and compositional aesthetics, the mood and emotional content is powerful. I possess a strong interest in painting, music and film, and I am fascinated with exploring the overlap between film, multimedia, and visual art forms such as performance and installation art. I seek beauty in the simplicity found in new experiences, people, places, and art forms. I love to create and seek inspiration from the world as well as inspiring others to create. While my current work may be referenced to that of the great 1960s Pop artists and the 'pop-art' movement, I feel it also re-introduces you to the world of contemporary pop art. My pop art paintings, though greatly influenced by Warhol, differ in that no screen printing is involved. Each piece is completely hand drawn and hand painted on canvas.
 

About Matthew Hatt
    

  Matthew Hatt is a Canadian artist. Born in Toronto in 1975. Matthew's work has been seen all over and has been an inspiration for many up and coming artists. The inspiration for Matthew Hatt's body of work is derived from a variety of sources, most notably the Group of Seven, Andy Warhol, Jean-Michel Basquiat and Logan Hicks. Matthew sees his work as a personal narrative, a collection of stories that have shaped his youth. He has focused his talents on painting pop art style portraits. By using self-developed drawing and painting processes, he has always found ways to express himself with his artwork using acrylics and oils. He utilizes intense colors to give character to the canvas, which represent Matthew’s approach to his own spontaneous creativity.
  After spending many years in Halifax Nova Scotia, Matthew has been making art at his studio in Gold River for several years. Matthew's art hangs in both American and Canadian homes. Matthew Hatt has also been producing idm/experimental music under the name scykosiz for almost 10 years. He also produces hip hop under the name Thrill Bixby.
