About the Instructor:

Matias Brimmer is a Michigan-based figure painter and multimedia artist. Matias has always had a passion for the visual arts, and has maintained an active studio practice for a decade as of this year. His work is frequently characterized by violent, gestural mark-making and figures which slide between figuration and abstraction. Check out his work on IG: https://www.instagram.com/brimmer.matias/

ACWL-Nuveen classes are supported in part by grants from the Michigan Arts & Culture Coalition, the National Endowment for the Arts and the Nuveen Benevolent Trust.
