An Artist in New York

Words & Photography
by Mathew Chavez

[I am] interested in the Cubist and Dadaism eras, all things color, and humor and sadness.

I am a freelancer who works from home in my apartment in New York City. My work is centered around the abstracted figure. I am inspired by George Condo, Alice Neel and Pablo Picasso, and am also interested in the Cubist and Dadaism eras, all things color, and humor and sadness. All of which contribute to each of my portraits. Living in New York, I'm forced to meet so many people all with their own story to tell.
