matthew taylor williams | Oolong Gallery

Using the formal vocabulary of sculpture, Matthew Taylor Williams seeks to deploy formal metaphors as aesthetic gestures. His work is primarily concerned with art’s decorative nature and how this has been instrumental in making the prevailing mode of production, consumption, communication, and administration more palatable. He lives and works in Los Angeles and received his MFA from UC San Diego in 2022. Williams work has been shown at the Institute of Contemporary Art San Diego, Oolong Gallery Solana Beach, Phase Gallery Los in Angeles, James Hill in San Clemente, and Almost Holden in Santa Monica. He was the 2021 recipient of the Russell Foundation Grant.
