Matt Saunders, like Sigmar Polke and other interdisciplinary artists in this exhibition, is a hybrid image maker and a believer in alchemy. Working in the interstitial spaces between painting, printmaking, photography, and film, and committed to blending their inherent poetics, he has created a body of work that defies easy description. Born in Tacoma, Washington, near the Puget Sound, he believes: "The ideas that come with water, fluidity, movement, absence of form are all a natural part of my work. In my paintings, just like with my videos, the feeling that things have yet to take shape is very significant. There’s always something still moving. An energy at work."
