Trouble Makers

by Matthew Aceves

“Focused on the theme of loneliness, my artwork explores the human experience through the lens of solitude and longing, while utilizing animals as symbols of comfort and connection. By incorporating animals into my paintings, I aim to evoke warmth and loyalty, inviting viewers to reflect on their own emotions and perspectives. Through my work, I seek to provoke discussion and foster a deeper understanding of the human-animal bond and its role in navigating isolation.”
