Artist Bio:
Rene Matić was born in Peterborough in 1997, they live and work in London. Matić uses photography along with sculpture, textiles, sound, moving image and writing to reflect on identity, community and love. Their work often captures scenes and snippets from everyday life, subcultures and their own personal background to ask questions about race, gender, class and nationality.
Created amid a backdrop of right-wing populism, violence and political hypocrisy, Matić’s exhibition As Opposed to the Truth explores how despite this, people can ‘hold on to one another, care for each other, and learn to live with vulnerability.’
