Behind the Artwork

Matalas births her creations with the healing power of art and the symbolization of spirit. By channeling her admiration for nature and the artistic legacy of figures like Kahlo and McQueen, she explores the painful emotional landscape of transformation, weaving narratives of hope and liberation into her art.

Her unique vision brings forth a nurturing, spiritual essence, inviting us to reflect on our own metamorphoses and celebrating the lightness that can emerge from even the darkest changes.

The most powerful symbol of transformation is ever-present in her work—the butterfly.
