Collection: Matt McInnes

I've been working as an artist in Hamilton since 2005, and have spent the past 14 years as an arts educator and community arts facilitator. The didactic and collaborative nature of these professional experiences have greatly impacted my artistic practice, My approach to art-making is often project-based, combining local stories and locations with a folk-influenced drawing style to bring forgotten stories and places to viewers, using intimate detail and affective interpretations of architecture and landscapes. I feel that this is an attempt to make public history accessible by documenting such forgotten or overlooked narratives.
