MATT DUFFIN
Artist Statement
_Matt Duffin was born in 1968 and grew up in Houston, Texas. He received
his Bachelor of Science in Architecture from the University of Houston.
He never practiced as an architect, choosing instead to become an
artist. Through art, he found that he could easily combine his tendency
toward right angles and perspective drawing with the more human themes of
solitude and irony. Over time, his medium has evolved from charcoal to
encaustic wax, but he continues to dwell in the realm of dark recesses
and stark contrasts.
