BIO

Matthew Wigglesworth

(b. 1972, England, United Kingdom) Lives and works in Australia

Matthew, an artist and surfer from the Sunshine Coast, Australia, creates art that embodies a more simple and carefree surf culture.  He enjoys riding retro-designed surfboards like twin fishes, single fins, mid-lengths and longboards.  His passion for vintage-inspired colours patterns shapes and lines shows in his work, which captures the essence of these boards on the wave and in the culture.  Matthew’s art resonates with those who embrace a simple lifestyle, practice positive choices both in and out of the water and represented a people that are open, creative, happy and ocean minded.

Each piece of Matthew's artwork is created from those places in his mind and heart, from his soul and what he visualises around him, from his travels and experiences, from what touches him and brings sparks of joy about this surf life. To be framed from his place to your place, a reminder of good times and moments that have captured our spirits and caused a stoked smile both inward and outward. A nostalgic art for an appreciation of all that is good in this surf culture and ocean inspired lifestyle.
