to eradicate the various
substances and smells
I’ve picked up during the
day, and revitalise. I get
back to reading through my
messages, talk to friends,
play some games if I have
time, eat, watch a bit of TV,
then go to bed to prepare for
another busy day.

What do you do for a

day job?

Like I said, I’m currently

working on various different
farms. I’m an aspiring
veterinary student, and
this is what I’m filling the
time between school and
university with. I really
enjoy my time working
with animals, and it’s really
important in helping me
understand the various
nuances that I will need to
know for what I hope is my
future career.

What do you think

about design in your
country?

The UK is a great place

to be a designer, there’s
a lot of cultural and
social diversity that all fits
together to often produce
very eclectic and inspiring
styles. Not to mention all
the brilliant designers who
ply their trade here. Great
stuff.
What are your weapons
of choice, so to speak,
in designing?

I try not to constrain myself

with the tools I use, but I have
found that I tend to make the
majority of my elements with
Cinema 4D, Illustrator or good
old pen & paper, then composit
them together in Photoshop.
I also use a wealth of stock
photography, from various great
sites. This is one thing that I
think I could start working on,
as I find myself looking for that
perfect photo to fit in my piece,
which I would easily be able to
get if I had a decent camera to
hand and decent photographic
know-how.
What’s the most important
for you in life?

Keep busy, help others and most

importantly, keep happy!
If you had to do the last
masterpiece in your life
... What would it be?

I would do something big, really

really big. Something large
enough for me to incorporate
and tie together all the brilliant
artistic styles I’ve encountered
into one massive composition.
I’d definitely use huge amounts
of colour, maybe even play with
texture, something I’ve never
done before. Most importantly,
it would have to look fucking
cool.
The past issue of
Revolutionart was
“Internet”. What do
you think about global
impact of this tool in our
civilization?

As the internet becomes

increasingly more widespread and
ingrained in our society, I think
we’re seeing a change towards
instant-gratification. Anything we
could ever think to have wanted,
or needed is now just a few
button presses away; everything
is readily accessible. This swift
access to information takes away
the emphasis on fact-learning,
and more towards having a deep
understanding and evaluation of
what we can readily access.

Thank you Matt !

and mayonnaise. I can cook
both of them quite well.
 
If you had to do the
last piece of art in
your life ... What
would it be?

I think I have thought about

that some times in my life,
and at one point I decided I’d
never think about it, because
you never know when the
last one will come. I guess
it would reflect my inner
status of the moment or
maybe it could be a political
piece. If the decision were
mine, honestly I have to tell
you that I’ve got no idea
right now, but I bet it would
be something really baroque
and tremendous with a lot
of exploding heads and high
contrast between colors and
lighting. And red, lots of red.

What do you
like most about
the online art
community?

Well, what can I say of

something that opened
the doors to me and to
thousands of people to the
world of artistic exposure?
If it weren’t by that, most
of new talents would go
unnoticed. The world of art
is something elitist, they try
to make people see that it is
something for everyone with
talent, but in terms of reality
it only works to people with
contacts, so internet is the
tool for those other people
who self-manage themselves.
It’s a weapon of two edges,
too. I remember, years ago,
it was somewhat easier
than today to get exposure.
If you had talent and you
spent lots of your time on
art communities, you were
able to get yourself a seat
in the front row, but today
that’s more difficult, no matter
how much talent you’ve got
or how many hours do you
spend there… slowly, this is
becoming as well something
elitist since everybody has
an account everywhere and
all sites are engaged, but
anyways it is still the best
medium for self-promotion.
 
The past issue of
Revolutionart was

you think about
