THE WORK

“No matter who you are, life can knock you down and leave you shattered. The art of living is about picking up the pieces, putting yourself back together, and facing the next challenge.”

— Matt Gatton

Gatton’s portrait work is offered in two formats: in 3D, the photo-sculptures themselves, and in 2D, as prints of the photo-sculptures. The large format prints are made using archival dye sublimation process on aluminum.
