Matt Haffner is a mixed media artist who works in a variety of materials. These often include newspaper, spray paint, cardboard, salvaged street signs, wheat paste, and industrial pencils, which give his pieces a frenzied, chaotic feel and show his roots as a street artist. Large-scale site-specific installations and smaller works on paper examine the artist's memories of growing up in the urban Midwest. These personal narratives are woven together with mythologies and folklore to illuminate surreal and otherworldly experiences.

He has won countless awards and grants in support of his work, including a National Endowment for the Arts Project Award, MOCA Georgia's prestigious Working Artist Award, and a Forward Arts Foundation Award.
