Spudart: thoughtful fun
Posting every Wednesday, Spudart is Matt Maldre's long-running blog about art, creativity, curiosity, and the strange beauty of ordinary things. Through photography, experiments, observations, and unconventional projects, Matt explores unexpected ways to interact with the world around us. From street-worn baseball cards and letters written on aluminum foil to collecting leaves and turning everyday objects into time capsules, Spudart is about noticing more, thinking differently, and finding ideas worth trying yourself.
