My name is Matthew Pugh. I am twenty nine years old. I work full time as an educator, and I spend the rest of my time working on my sculptures. My studio is in downtown Oakland. I studied illustration at the California College of the Arts and Crafts, where I obtained my BFA in 2004. I am currently working on a series of sculpture, drawings, and paintings which are all visually developing a narrative I am working on. I use found objects, recycled materials, hardware store bought supplies as well as traditional media.

I was raised in a family of artists and educators, both in northern coastal California & Switzerland. Learning to forage for and prepare mushrooms & edible plants as a child, instilled a deep appreciation for the generosity of mountains, woods & waters surrounding me. This seeking & gathering soon translated into passionately removing any trash I would find endangering the natural beauty…and, eventually, tinkering with it sometimes!My hope is that any creations I share with the public will mke them stop, laugh…then think about their personal choices in regards to reducing waste streams and protecting natural ones.
