Matthew William Robinson
I recently stumbled across this artist on the internet and thought that his work was rather interesting. His paintings primarily deal with desolate and broken environments which seems to be reflective of dystopia. He explains that his work deals with the cyclical pattern of humanity and human understanding. He critiques that "It is de-evolution, in the need to ‘move forward’ humanity blindly takes shortcuts at the expense of health, environment, wellbeing and happiness." This is in a very simple way dystopia. His works all seem to possess this quality as well. For example this painting below shows the crowding of nature by the modern landscape.
The artwork of his collage series also highlights dystopia in a very unique way. His work can be found here. http://matthewwrobinson.com/section/169077_Painting_Collage_2009_10.html
