OHNe/projects (Phil Duckworth, Matt Golden, Ben Sadler, Andy Turner) is an art collective exploring music, performance and sound installation.
Matt Golden is Director of The Russian Club Gallery, London. He writes and performs as musician, troubadour and artist Juan Carlode.
Stretching across the various disciplines of visual art, Golden's work calls to mind Carl Andre and the minimalist love of making art out of what should not be art. His actions result from using materials to hand, though his interventions are based on an internal logic - the idea that the materials themselves suggest what transformation they could undergo. Through slight subversions his single element works become resituated in the world.
