Matthew May is a Dutch-British street artist whose work bridges the bold language of urban expression with the quiet strength of classical craft. With over two decades of experience in large-scale public art, Matthew rose to prominence for his precise, anamorphic illusions and geometric interventions in public space. Trained as a fine artist, he brings a romantic, hands-on sensibility to a field often dominated by spectacle—favoring depth, detail, and quiet disruption over noise. Based in Bergen, the Netherlands, he continues to experiment with new surfaces and contexts, blending oil painting, floor murals, and architectural distortion. Whether working on a wall, a street, or linen canvas, Matthew explores the tension between permanence and ephemerality, tradition and progress. His work resists easy categorization, aiming instead to invite reflection, movement, and a shift in perspective.
