Robin Matto is a contemporary artist from the South of the UK. He is a BA Hons Visual Communication graduate and his work has been featured in a number of publications & exhibited in prestigious spaces such as: la Galerie Verdigris, The Truman gallery on Brick Lane and New Designers at the Business Design Centre, Islington.

The artwork of RM has a strong sense of fluidity and immediate feel, similar in some respects to street art/graffiti. The raw texture of his final presentation and choice of humble materials are a reaction towards the unsubtle & trend-driven work abundant on social media, the cold transactional nature of NFT’s and the intellectual property theft of AI art.

One of the most prominent influences on the work of Robin Matto are the textures found in urban and industrial environments; Concrete, flaking paint, rusting sheet metal and multiple layers of torn advertising posters all fuel his passion to create. These built-up layers, are like glimpses of a City’s past, exposing memories from its former years like the rings of a fallen tree.

The art of Robin Matto is heavily inspired by Electronic Music and as part of Spektralsound he’s had a number of physical & digital releases on labels such as Keysound Recordings, Idle Hands & Pressure Dome, received radio play on BBC1Xtra, Rinse FM, NTS & International stations from Australia to Iran and in a surreal twist, featured after the NASA Perseverance Mars Rover official sound recordings, gaining 1.6 million listeners.
