Matthew Simpson is a visual artist with a hidden disability. Matthew has painted for many years since studying fine art at the Victorian College of the Arts in the 1980s. Matthew’s work for the past few years has concentrated on the possibilities of form and pattern that emerge through a process of repeated addition of lines. The process involves both random mark making and considered addition of line to revealed structures that arise.

The Dax Centre is wheelchair accessible and there are disabled toilets on the ground floor next to The Dax Centre.

IMAGE DESCRIPTION: The image is of an abstract painting with a complex pattern of wavy, interwoven lines. The lines are in various colors, including shades of black, brown, yellow, orange, and white. The background is filled with a mix of these colors, creating a dense, layered effect. The overall composition gives a sense of movement and depth, with the lines overlapping and intertwining throughout the canvas.
