L7Matrix

Dundalk

Location

Luis G. Martins aka L7matrix was only 13 when he first met spray paints. This experience has opened the door for many upcoming experiments that artist named L7matrix was about to perform.

While exploring mixtures for his work, Luis tried many techniques and finally created his unique approach by using china ink, varnish, soft pastel, oil pastel and acrylic.

The winning combination of realism and abstraction, brought closer together in Luis’ artwork, creates a melting pot of emotions, materials and media for viewer’s eyes to enjoy. L7matrix’s artistic skill is filled with all known human emotions and city’s jumble, blend roughness with elegance, in order to transmit the concept of empathy for the surroundings. Luis rarely listens to music while working, instead, he likes to blend in with the ambiance, listening to every sound it creates.
