Collage and Stencil artist, Mathieu Bories alias Mateo questions the perception of the world which surrounds us. His humanistic approach emphasizes a nostalgia of childhood as well as a romanticism erased in our contemporary society. Forgotten images, photography, travel documents accumulated in search of timeless knowledge are the raw material of a personal composition, a monologue of the soul. Born in France in 1985. After completing a master degree in Art in Toulouse, he heads to Montreal for studying and work during 4 years. Then he start a 8 months travel around South America where he still produce and paints murals with the wire of its meetings.His influence are situated between street art and collage with a total freedom of materials. Now back to his roots in Europe, we still can see his work in France, Spain, Latvia, Canada, Argentine, Chili, Uruguay, Bolivie.
