Matt Copson – författare

This monographic catalogue is co-published by KW and CURA. on the occasion of MattCopson’s first institutional solo exhibition at KW Institute for Contemporary Art, Berlin.In his hybrid practice—drawing from pop culture, myths, ancient philosophy, andmedieval folklore—Copson explores existential questions and contemporarysubjectivity, which he sees as increasingly shaped by constant flux, spectacle, and theeconomies of attention. Copson’s installations often feel like environments,constructed spaces that invite viewers to step inside and inhabit worlds wherearchetypal figures like babies, anthropomorphized animals, or folkloric charactersbecome vehicles for exploring the human condition.This book reflects on the past decade of Matt Copson’s artistic practice, encompassinghis video works, installations, sculptures, drawings, performances, and laseranimations, while serving as the first monograph of his multifaceted career.
