This project is a physical adaptation of the Matt Dixon painting ‘tha artist’.


Brilliant sculpted as a one-off by my friend Anders Karm. As a commission for a collector in Singapore.

Quite tricky to do actually, as Matt paints digitally. So it was impossible cooy the style in analogue painting. So in the end I just did my own thing.

thanks for the trust!
