Matt Donovan and Hallie Siegel are a Toronto-based arts collaborative who explore how the written word has evolved into a “sticky” graphic culture that has shaped us to the core — even in the very way we observe and think.

Their works are held in private and public collections across North America and Europe, and they were featured artists at the 2016 Edinburgh Arts Festival. In 2017 Donovan and Siegel were awarded a New Chapter Grant, a one-time program from the Canada Council created on the occasion of the 150th anniversary of the Canadian Confederation. They have been represented by the Olga Korper Gallery (Toronto) since 2007.
