Matt Hawthorne, one our favorite Richmond artists has new work hanging in at Gallery 5 until this weekend.

The works in Richmond native Matthew Hawthorne’s upcoming series, Gut Feeling- comprised of a selection of his older and newer works- focuses on the relationship between man and the man-made. By intertwining elements of the organic and industrial, Hawthorne blurs the line between the two realms.

“I’ve been working to try and illustrate a connection between the aesthetics of the mechanical object made in man’s image, and a sort of skeletal, fleshy undertone to project a sense of embodiment.” -Matthew Hawthorne

Gut Feeling will be on display until May 29th. via the Gallery5 blog

In 2005, I created RVA Magazine, and I'm still at the helm as its publisher. From day one, it’s been about pushing the “RVA” identity, celebrating the raw creativity and grit of this city. Along the way, we’ve hosted events, published stacks of issues, and, most importantly, connected with a hell of a lot of remarkable people who make this place what it is. Catch me at @majormajor____

Review | BLKS is a Mixed Bag at Richmond Triangle Players

I often come off like a chihuahua on sugar pills when reviewing plays for this magazine. I am excitable, yes, but never in the service of idle flattery. I also take no joy in being critical of people’s hard work. I’ve said this whole thing before several times, but I...
