About the artist:
Nathaniel Matthews (b. 1991, Staten Island, NY) is an artist who lives and works in Brooklyn, NY. His practice is informed by a history in self-publishing and subcultures, and is often led by research and reference. The form of each work is determined by its subject, moving between sincerity and parody, attraction and repulsion, myth and reality, and distortion to reveal feeling without requiring resolution.

Specs:
The drama and violence of Formula 1 find an unexpected parallel in classical opera, where intensity, rivalry, and fatal consequence unfold on stage. Images of Maria Callas—captured during her performance in Tosca at Royal Opera House on January 24, 1964—are paired with moments from the racetrack. In both, performance depends on precision under pressure. The singer and the driver each operate at the edge of control, where small miscalculations can have outsized consequences.More
