The Infinite Canvas: a Solo Exhibition of the Work of Matthew Coglianese

Overview:
The Infinite Canvas erases the frame. Every gesture, movement, or glance adds a new stroke to an ever-expanding composition. There is no final image—only a living field that rewrites itself with each participant, revealing the boundless nature of creative collaboration between human and machine.

Exhibition Statement

In The Infinite Canvas, Matthew Coglianese invites viewers into an environment where reality itself behaves like an unfinished work of art. Here, the boundaries of the frame dissolve; each movement, each act of observation, extends the artwork in unpredictable directions. The installation behaves less like a static image and more like a living system—one that absorbs participation as a form of authorship. The piece questions what happens when art is no longer completed by the artist, but perpetually reimagined by its audience. In this boundless field of interaction, creation becomes infinite, and perception itself becomes a brushstroke.
