Layered Rock Pattern

About  The Artist

William Mandela Matthews

My art style is expressive, vibrant, and rooted in narrative. I work with bold colors, layered textures, and dynamic forms to explore the complexities of identity, culture, and lived experience. I often incorporate found objects—such as magazines, wood, textiles, and other reclaimed materials—breathing new life into what has been discarded. These elements are thoughtfully combined with visual language drawn from classical art movements like the Harlem Renaissance, Rococo, and Expressionism. Each piece becomes a layered story—an emotional imprint shaped by both personal memory and shared history. Through this fusion of the raw and the refined, I aim to evoke connection, spark reflection, and leave a lasting impression beyond the canvas.
