Renata De Bonis & Mat Cahill 

Treehouse NDSM - studio 57H5

Mat Cahill

At the core of Mat Cahill’s practice is drawing—a means of visualising thought processes and exploring complex themes. His distinctive illustrative style has evolved through years of reflection on subjects such as community, migration, society, and, more recently, grief.
Born in the North of England in 1984, Cahill now lives and works in Amsterdam. He studied at Loughborough University before completing a Master’s degree in Drawing at the University of the Arts London. During his studies, he began exhibiting widely across the UK, and by 2008 he was working as a studio assistant to Damien Hirst.
Over the past fifteen years, Cahill’s signature style has gained international recognition, leading to exhibitions in museums and galleries worldwide, including the Victoria and Albert Museum and The Lowry. His works are held in numerous private collections around the globe.

Renata De Bonis

Renata De Bonis (1984, São Paulo) is an artist and researcher. She began her career in the early 2000s and since then developed a body of work that involves multiple languages, such as painting, installations, and sound projects that end up juxtaposing different temporalities, such as the time of the geological, astronomical, and environmental spheres, with the accelerated time of the mundane affairs of modern civilization, in an attempt to promote reflections and critical and urgent apprehensions linked to our current violent relationship with the environment.

​Recent solo shows include: Mirror, Mirror, Lamb Gallery, London, UK (2024), Touch, L21 Gallery, Palma, SP (2023), The Time and Place That We Part, Lamb Gallery, London, UK (2022) Vento Sul, Galeria Superfície, São Paulo, BR (2021), Sono Leve, auroras, São Paulo, BR (2021), composition, De Aanschouw, Rotterdam, NL (2019), Aurora, Giorgio Galotti, Turin, IT (2017).
