LIGHT BOXES BY<\/span><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

MATTHEW SHELTON<\/span><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

PRICED $100-$1000, best appreciated in person as some of them dance when you move<\/em><\/p>\n

*on display through the rest of the year<\/p>\n

You may have seen examples of Matthew Shelton<\/a>‘s light boxes behind the back bar of Northside Tavern<\/a>, or at The Lodge<\/a> in Dayton KY, or previously on exhibition at NVISION<\/a>, but here’s your chance to see new work, including non-electric glass framed versions, self-published booklets of art & lyrics, and there are even two light boxes that are collaborations with Jad Fair<\/a>!<\/p>\n

ABOUT THE ARTIST:
\nMatthew Shelton was born in South Carolina in 1974. Following two years at Berry College in Rome, Georgia, he pursued a Bachelor of Fine Arts at the Art Academy of Cincinnati.<\/p>\n

During his years in Cincinnati, he pursued both music and art with equal intensity. As leader of his bands The Cat Lovers, Me or the Moon, and M.Shelton\u2019s Picnic, he garnered praise for his inventive approach to folk music, using both traditional solo guitar, and more idiosyncratic approaches to songwriting and performance by playing the African mbira, and forming odd chamber music groups featuring bassoon, bass clarinet, piano, saxophone, and strings.<\/p>\n

Along with his musical output, he made and exhibited a varying body of artwork during his time in Cincinnati. His whimsical, folk art and comic book influenced Women and Kitties series found considerable attention in non-traditional venues like bars, hair salons, video stores, and cafes.<\/p>\n

In 2004, Shelton began his groundbreaking light box work that continues to this day. Using a technique of the artist\u2019s own creation, these works feature a meticulous attention to detail, with patterns comprised of thousands of holes, creating mandala-inspired, jewel-like images of light and pattern. These works have been exhibited in numerous venues since, thrilling both seasoned art connoisseurs and casual viewers.<\/p>\n

In the summer of 2010, Shelton relocated to Chicago, and continues to create and exhibit his light boxes in his new home city. His music projects continue as well, with a Chicago chapter of the Picnic, and continued solo work.<\/p>\n

In 2015, he formed ExtraOcular<\/a>, a trio that currently features mbira, guitar and cello.<\/p>\n

Also in 2015, Shelton made the leap into video-based work and has cultivated a wild and experimental psychedelic style that continues to evolve, making use of his years of work as an artist and musician in a completely different medium.<\/p>\n
