Matty Jankowski
Hailing from New York where he owned a body art emporium and archive, Matty Jankowski now calls Panama City home. The term "cool" was invented to describe someone like Matty. He's charismatic, intelligent, passionate, and is a true original who lives life his own way. In addition to creating object art, he is also a freelance writer with work published in print and online. Matty is also often in demand for speaking engagements and presentations. He can be reached using the contact form located at the bottom of this page.
The photos on this page were taken in and around his home, which also currently functions as a studio and gallery. Most of the artworks were created from found objects.
At first glance, this piece appears to be a club symbol from a playing card suit, but it was originally part of a sign from Key Electric Company.
Matty's comment on this work: "This text piece was a variation of a piece by artist Jenny Holzer. The main focus of her work is the use of words and ideas in public space. She has been an inspiration for many of my public text works."
