| Matt Leines grew up in New Jersey and attended the Rhode Island School
of Design. His work draws influences from Hermetic Sciences to Hulk
Hogan and Harald Hardrada to He-Man. He draws pictures that depict the
culture and conflicts of a fantasy world inhabited by mustached men,
wild beasts, and living architecture. Leines presents himself as an
insider in an outsider?s world, where he serves as both creator and
narrator. The emphatically meticulous lines speak to a primitive, yet
undeniably modern aesthetic. Leines? work has been shown across the
United States, including Deitch Projects as well as Athens, Greece and
Tokyo. |
