Interview with painter Matthew R. Murphy about his work and studio practice.

Murphy notes: "I find my work caught between the world of illusion and the object with no clear way to resolve this. I find some ideas must be objects posing as paintings and sometimes paintings posing as objects, while still other times paintings are simply paintings."
