Plain Sight

Update for Plain Sight – September 2022

Despite the best efforts of the Art Trail Team, Visit West Norfolk and the Borough Council of King’s Lynn and West Norfolk, development of Plain Sight at King’s Lynn is now paused. This is due to unforeseen issues with the proposed installation site.

Studio Squash have produced a brilliantly creative design – we are working hard with our partners to find a new way to bring this to life and identify new opportunities to bring site-specific artwork to the area in future.

Plain Sight was developed in collaboration with Richard Morrison.

Biography

Matt’s work focuses on the boundary between art and architecture. Whether through installation, performance, or permanent structure – human perception is at the centre.

While studying architecture at Newcastle University and the Manchester School of Architecture, Matt focused on the crossover between art, architecture, and philosophy with a particular interest in light and perception.

These aspects feature heavily in his work, in which environments are created to question a viewer’s experience of the world around them.

Between degrees, he worked for architecture practices in the UK, Sweden and Denmark, including RIBA Gold Medal winning practice Grimshaw. He is now at 59 Productions, where he is part of the architecture team, working on set design and exhibition projects.
