Golgotha Graphics is the webspace for Matt Godden, an artist, designer, graphic novellist, teacher and student based in Sydney, Australia.
As an artist I'm interested in comics and graphic novels, sculpture, drawing, photography, really anything that provides a creative outlet. For the past few years I've been working part time towards a Bachelor of Fine Arts at the National Art School in Sydney, where I've specialised towards sculpture and photography.
In graphic novels, I've been working on a book, Surfing The Deathline, for a few years. It's a story focusing on popular media ideas about geopolitics, theocracy, faith, terrorism, poverty and isolation, in the face of growing machine intelligence and human obsolescence. Stylistically, it sits firmly in the aesthetic of early 1980's cyberpunk.
Here’s a video walkaround of my newest sculptural creation, and my first attempt at welded sculpture. It’s living in the loungeroom for a week or so while I try to figure out how comfortable I am sharing space with it.
