my work
The artist purposefully brings together mediums, using found materials and reimagining them to create her artworks.
For the artist, each of these found objects carries a specific aura that speaks to her individually.
my process
Mattai’s works incorporate vintage prints and sculptures, found needlepoints and vintage saris either collected or passed down to her from friends and family. Often, Mattai will include vintage prints that depict European and colonial pastoral motifs. However, her works create unexpected interventions in these spaces, unsettling and reassembling these idealised realms to weave new narratives.
