The Molesworth Gallery is delighted to present an exhibition of new paintings by Francis Matthews.
In this latest body of work, followers of the artist will recognise the familiar subject matter of urban architecture: details of streets and buildings that might otherwise go unnoticed or be cursorily dismissed as unworthy of representation due to a drab or discordant appearance. For Matthews, however, these mundane elements of the urban landscape are ripe with possibilities, energized by the sophisticated interplay of light and shadow.
Francis Matthews graduated with a first-class honours degree in architecture from UCD before pursuing a career as an artist. He has won multiple awards, including the Hennessy Craig Scholarship at the RHA Annual.
