Matthew Shaffer

 

Matthew received his BFA in sculpture from Indiana University and his MFA in ceramics from the University of Florida. He has exhibited his work all over the U.S., from California to New York. His work has been published in Clay Times and Lark Books and he is currently an interim full time professor at Santa Fe Community College. "I make my figures believable enough to carry the weight of their affliction, but plastic enough that their expressions disclose a subtle, dark humor.  I want the humor of my pieces to give a degree of accessibility that allows the viewer to feel more comfortable with the figure’s exposed vulnerabilities.  These vulnerabilities created by these inconsistencies in social norms that we, as males, perpetuate."
