Matthew Robinson’s painting documents the relational spirituality existing between architecture and the human experience. We can see references to the vernacular architecture of small cities and suburbs altered by the mid-to-late-century ideals.   Fragments of structures,   imagined or representational, are depicted simultaneously in a singular composition. Therefore, the ugly construction materials become part of a beautiful whole. The work is also a product of the artist’s own renovation efforts in his 1840’s home in Beacon.
