"Adam Matta's drawings of every bridge linking Manhattan to the rest of the world are deeply felt poetic responses both to the architecture of place, and, metaphorically, to the vehicles of connection we find in this world and to each other. Matta, out of the solitude of the Covid-19 pandemic, found a way to connect to place as metaphor for human connection, making elegantly executed drawings operating on the viewer in a profoundly poetic manner."
- Mark Thomas Kanter, painter and former drawing professor at Columbia Universtiy and SUNY New Paltz
