About this artwork
Three figures are engaged in a bizarre ritual inside a room of ambiguous origins. Their actions appear to be in support of some unknown religious or occult belief and each is adorned with macabre costume, or are perhaps even something other than human. An altar adorned with lumps of ham tied to smiley-face balloons reserves its centre for a cheeseburger groaning under the weight of its ludicrously overzealous cheese allocation. What is happening…
and how could anybody commit themselves to a scene so devoid of sense? The viewer is left to wonder whilst simultaneously understanding that doing do is futile.

« I paint because it hurts less than not painting. »
Carp Matthew is an artist based in the United Kingdom whose paintings have been exhibited in England. He describes his works as, "looking for sense where there is none". Most humans inevitably question the meaning of life. Matthews is not convinced by established suggestions, however, he is fascinated by the various ways people come to their own conclusions regarding this matter. His distinctive compositions are created using acrylics, oils, and pastels on canvas.
