Matthew Rose – Nature Creature (2025, Original Collage, 14 × 20 cm, Signed on Board)

Nature Creature (2025) is an original collage by Matthew Rose that blurs the boundaries between nature, human figures, and animals, imbuing the composition with symbolic humor and a fable-like quality. Disparate elements coexist harmoniously, creating what can be described as a playful exploration of perception.

Vivid colors and a soft compositional flow are punctuated with subtle visual dissonance and irony, giving the work a quiet yet compelling presence. Its layered textures and materiality invite reflection on conceptual art and ZINE culture, appealing to collectors and enthusiasts of experimental visual narratives.
