Born 1976, Narrendera, Australia. Lives and works in Melbourne.
Matt Hinkley's drawings and sculptures confound the eye in their meticulous and painstaking delicacy. Almost imperceptible renderings on existing graphics, and obsessively hand-drawn patterns captivate and mesmerise the viewer. In the age of digital reproduction these hand-made pencil drawings and delicate carvings are perversely anachronistic.
Matt Hinkley Exhibitions include: "NEW08" Australian Centre for Contemporary Art, Melbourne 2008; "Inverted Topology" Australian Centre for Contemporary Art, Melbourne & Artspace, Sydney 2005
