About this artwork
A burning, headless figure wearing business attire runs through a graveyard holding a corner-shop plastic bag in one hand and a frozen chicken in the other. The floor is littered with bottles of bleach and the black featureless night offers no further clues as to the location or meaning of the image. Dealing with themes of finance, history and mortality, the painting leaves the viewer with much the same sensation as contemporary global politics often…
does; bemused and empty.

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.
