MALT

Rick Malt is a contemporary artist whose work is deeply rooted in his experiences with nature, graffiti, and skateboarding. Drawing on these influences, his work explores the interplay between line and shape, using these elements to capture the fluidity and movement of the world around us. By representing nature through the lens of line and shape, he conveys the sense of energy and dynamism that exists within our environment.

​Through Malt’s work, He aims to express the interconnectedness of all living things and highlight the delicate balance of our environment. He often employs bold and graphic lines to create compositions that draw the viewer’s eye to the patterns and forms found in nature, ultimately aiming to create a visual language that invites viewers to contemplate their place in the world and their connection with nature.

“In my art, I have always gravitated towards nature and birds to be more specific. Their movement and fluid like flight is what I was originally drawn to. Over the years, the subject matter has stayed the same, but with the recent work I have been really interested in deconstructing the imagery, focusing on form rather than subject, using bold lines and shapes to suggest the abstracted movement.”
