My work stems from a fear of the direction our species is headed, in almost all considerations. More specifically, the impact that our existence, no our thriving, has on the land in which we occupy. These fears draw me to not only our interactions with the natural world, but also the results of these interactions. This planet has its own power, one that we as a population, no longer respect as our elders did. I produce photographs of all scales, drawings, and collect artifacts to process my own experience with these interactions.

Select photographs from Mattison’s Frontier Fellowship at Epicenter in Green River will be featured at the Epicenter Gallery. Two of his highly detail pen and ink illustrations (Shack and Swamp Cooler) will be for sale in the form of t-shirts and posters during Project Green River. Additionally, during his Fellowship Miles painted the Epicenter signage and drew a detailed topographic map just in time for Project Green River! Both the signage and map are forever part of Epicenter.
