In this episode of Toasts & Jams, we welcome Matt Dosa, a North London based visual artist whose work spans murals, abstract painting, prints and public art.
Emerging from a graffiti background, Matt has developed a distinctive visual language that blends bold colour, instinctive mark making and large scale composition. His work sits between street culture and contemporary abstraction, often exploring ideas of place, community and creativity.
We talk about Matt's journey from painting in public spaces to creating murals and large scale artworks, the role London has played in shaping his perspective, and why following your passion often matters more than following a plan.
The conversation moves through creativity, community, resilience and the importance of sharing your work. Matt reflects on working with people who don't see themselves as artists, the power of public art to bring people together, and a life changing accident that shifted his outlook on life.
It's a wide ranging conversation about creativity, instinct, community and finding your own path.
