Matthew Abe
Matthew Abe is a photographer born and raised in Auckland, New Zealand.

While Matthew acknowledges that he can't recreate the unique societal conditions of his childhood for his audience, he believes in the power of art to open minds. Through this exhibition, the aim is to provide viewers with an exercise in perspective-shifting, encouraging them to think more openly and challenge their preconception.
Drawing from a background in the fragrance industry, the artist uniquely combines visual and olfactory elements to distort and then recreate perception. Each segment of storytelling photographs is presented with a base of fashion to highlight the gap between art and everyday life.
"Reinterpretation" is an invitation to challenge our preconceptions. In a world which often rushes into judgement, this showcase reminds us of the beauty and surprise that await when we approach the unfamiliar with curiosity rather than prejudice.
Through this sensory journey, Matthew hopes to challenge presumption, and demonstrate how open-mindedness can colour our world with creativity.
