SSA ESSAY PROJECT | Matthew Morpheus
We are pleased to publish ‘Zero Emotion’ by SSA Member, Matthew Morpheus.
Matthew is a Ukrainian conceptual artist based in Scotland. His interdisciplinary practice spans digital collage, painting, drawing, and installation. Delving into political mythology, power structures, collective memory, and the construction of reality within contemporary media culture
His essay argues that beneath every calm exterior lies a complex mix of emotions, and through both meditative drawings and chaotic collages, Matthew explores the tension between public composure and private emotional experience.

The SSA essay programme intends to highlight the creative thinking of our members and to provide a platform for expressing and sharing our opinions on Art, Life and the World.
SSA Members are invited to submit essays for consideration by the SSA Essay Steering Group. This Group will look for essays containing original ideas and pertinent comments on the arts and beyond. You might, for example, like to write about your own art practice, the work of other artists you are familiar with, shows you have seen, or your musings on creative and cultural life.
