Mat O’Brien http://www.eleanorharwood.com/Site/Mat_OBrien.html Mat O’Brien - Well I Ain’t No Freud, I’m From S.F. Jan. 10th ’09- Feb 14th, 2009 Artist Statement and CV Available Work by Mat O’Brien Mat O'Brien lives and works in San Francisco. His illustrations seem to begin with an anecdotal commentary, perceived through the eyes of a dedicated observer. Painstakingly detailed lines and abstract prose, merge with elements of graphic design, paper cut outs, and sometimes borrowed imagery. The finished result blends together into a dissonant collage, to from a distinct visual language. He also enjoys drinking dragon well tea, and caring of houseplants.
